Tollway decision deferred by Texas Turnpike Authority
The Texas Turnpike Authority board unanimously deferred action on the Trinity Route tollway between Dallas and Fort Worth. The authority will wait for more regional input, study preliminaries by the North Central Texas Council of Governments, and required highway department approval before any feasibility work proceeds. Budget actions were approved for 1972, including toll plaza expansion and a new Dallas post office site exit.
