Fort Worth gets "modern" transportation

That's what the Fort Worth Star-Telegram calls the $787 million in grants Fort Worth is getting from the U.S. Transportation Department.  WHERE do you think they get that money?  WHO's do you think it is?

Maybe they could give that money to TXDot, we hear they need more land.  In the meantime, could we get a freeway that works around here?  Any of them.  Any one?

WHY are the getting it?  That may be the kicker.

It was one of 255 projects that the U.S. Transportation Department announced funding for Monday as part of $787 million in grants that were distributed nationwide, all aimed at modernizing and repairing transit systems throughout the nation.
