Watching this makes me miss Texas even though I've been to west Houston, San Antonio, and Laredo. Austin, and DFW are on my list to visit

West Houston is not Houston as a native lol. Come on into the city! The museum district and downtown are way more fun. 😃

I like videos like these. I haven’t been north of the 610 loop in ages I see they finished a lot of that construction from years prior. Looks good! One correction: You put “south Houston” about 3 exits early. The city of south Houston is the college Ave/Airport exit.

It won't be for several more years, but I-45 will eventually run concurrently with I-69/US-59 and I-10 around downtown when the Pierce Elevated is torn down.

Will be a hassle but necessity for sure. Same thing needs to happen to I-345 in Dallas.

@@CoolERoadTrips They don't need to run concurrently with Southwest/Eastex Freeway and I-10 tho. All you need is to make some new safe ramps and try to make the Pierce Elevated widened or safer and just widen I-45 from I-10 to the Beltway. But yes, it needs to happen to I-345. It's just not necessary for the I-45 downtown project.

They’ve been successful lately in canceling a lot of unnecessary expensive projects. The Hardy extension was supposed to be done 15 years ago and they realized it would be destroying a recently gentrified neighborhood. If the poor people still were there exclusively they would have leveled it. EaDo is now a thriving high rent area where it was ghetto. Now they want to have 24 lanes go through there? It’s not going to happen. If only the poor remained they would have already leveled it. With the shortage of affordable housing they already demolished a nice apartment,ent complex just built a few years ago. Texas is changing even though the republicans are still trying to pave over all the black areas.

I like the video..but I noticed you called it the "Houston Metroplex" The Theres only 1 if not 2 metroplexes in all of the US. And that's DFW and Minneapolis-St.Paul. But other than that this is a great video, I noticed all the cars were jumping up and down, the freeway must be bumpy?
