Morning News Pushes For Burying I-30

It's nice to have the Dallas Morning News recognize the destructiveness of urban interstate highways, as they do in this editorial. A taste:
The chance to restore the physical connection between East Dallas and South Dallas, with a walkable link to Fair Park, would change the face and function of two of the most important and historic areas of the city. Both East and South Dallas suffered decline after the interstate’s construction.
Welcome to the party, guys. We've been advocating for this idea since 2010, and we continue to do so in our May issue.
