can't believe there's a whole ass town named after a railroad with a railroad district, but said town can't bother to fund a transit project for their town (FRISCO, I'M LOOKING AT YOU)

I think if we cut the freeways in Dallas back to I-635, and replaced the right of way with additional transit lines and/or walking and biking paths, we could improve quality of life and health for Dallasites.
