The upper Broadway region belongs to all of San Antonio. It should be for everyone...
As San Antonio reels from the decision by the Texas Transportation Commission at the end of January to go back on its word, subvert the doctrine of local control and move actively against its Vision Zero goals, the brilliant Feb. 13“A remedy for construction” explained why TxDOT reversed its course with the city of San Antonio regarding the upper Broadway redesign.
The Texas Transportation Commission claims due to capacity issues, it cannot allow any reduction in vehicle lane miles on upper Broadway and the road must retain its designation as Texas Loop 368. TxDOT’s ownership of Broadway is just a designation — the street itself belongs to San Antonians. Broadway, like other former state highway segments in the middle of cities and small towns, serves a different purpose and should not be rebuilt like a state highway in the Texas countryside. Broadway acts as a boulevard, connecting historic neighborhoods, small businesses, burgeoning developments and Brackenridge Park.
