KPRC-2 and KHOU-11 both have this little press release story posted about Mayor White taking a helicopter tour of Kingwood with Rep. Ted Poe to look at Kingwood’s traffic woes.
The KPRC story adds this:
White and officials are also looking at ways to better utilize the high-occupancy vehicle lanes and expand METRO bus and rail services.
ADD bus service? No, no, no. Metro CUTS bus service. And I didn’t know there was a rail line planned for Kingwood anytime soon. Perhaps some developers have land in Kingwood that needs to be…developed.
I saw KHOU’s story last night. It included video of the helicopter Mayor White went up in and then a brief interview with the mayor. He said the feeder roads in Kingwood were jammed while traffic on the freeway was running smoothly.
I’m not sure why he had to go up in a helicopter to find that out, but I know how he can fix Kingwood’s traffic tie-ups: the Kingwood Feeder Road Traffic Authority.
