Welcome to Stop TxDOT I-45!

No surprise, they are trying to bully us. Remember when community members impacted residents, and local advocacy organizations submitted Title VI complaints of Civil Rights violations, and TxDOT immediately threatened to pull funding for the project entirely? This survey is our opportunity to say THIS IS NOT OK! We know I-45 needs work, but we deserve a project that serves those most impacted, prioritizes environmental justice, and is supported by local communities.
 

Read below to find out how to take TxDOT's survey and tell TxDOT WE DO NOT WANT THE I-45 EXPANSION. WE DESERVE BETTER.

Our responses to TxDOT's survey questions:

1. We do not want the I-45 expansion.
2. (I-45 in Houston)  Support removing the project and funding
3. (I-10 in El Paso)  Not in support of adding the proposed funding

You can skip questions 4 thru 8.

Sample comments:

• Why are these our only options? This poll continues TxDOT's horrible track record of public "engagement."
• The people of Houston deserve a new version of the project based on community consensus.
• TxDOT is threatening to take away funding after receiving Title VI complaints of Civil Rights violations from impacted communities. This is clearly retaliation.
• I support removal of I-45 freeway in Houston and conversion into complete streets with public transit and active transportation infrastructure.
• No displacement of residents. No added right-of-way. Restore our historic communities. Act on your promise to end traffic deaths in Texas.
• Move people not cars.

The comment period will end at 4:00 PM on August 9, 2021. A virtual public hearing will take place August 2, at 3:00 PM.
