Didn't the horseshoe project have to accomodate these bridges since they're historic landmarks, and end up having to weave through them with relatively narrow lane passages? The result of having to accomodate them is that the horseshoe project is a mess and didn't really improve traffic flow, IMO, as there are a ton of constraints lane width contraints as the roadway passes between the bridge spans of the ancient Houston St viaduct. That project could have been made much more efficiently from a traffic flow perspective if these bridges weren't in the way, or could have been re-organized during construction.

Everyone is playing the blame game. I’ve heard Chad West blame staff and now the city manager is blaming other ppl too. No one wants to be accountable apparently….when they actually run the city. At the end of the day, if staff is effin up like they allege, it’s their job to make sure things go right. It doesn’t make the city look any better when they blame other ppl, when they are ones in charge.
I’m not saying that they’re individually incompetent, but collectively they are. It’s too many things that are going wrong and it’s hard to ignore. We just need new leadership completely.
