San Antonio,- In what amounts to a total victory for the grassroots, TxDOT has to ask a Bexar County federal district court for a 60 day delay in TURF's 281 toll road lawsuit so they can beg the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) NOT to yank their environmental clearance for the US 281 toll project.
Through the discovery process of the lawsuit filed by TURF and Aquifer Guardians in Urban Areas (or AGUA), Judge Fred Biery required TxDOT to hand over the complete administrative record for US 281, including all the financials and the documents from when the improvements were funded with gas taxes that would keep US 281 a FREEway. It's been discovered that TxDOT withheld key documents not only from the public and TURF attorneys, but also the FHWA!
