While the ultimate impact of the building of the Trans-Texas Corridor will fall primarily upon the Texas landowner and taxpayer ...and eventually, as the trans-Texas traveler, HOW the whole process is overseen and financed is of importance, not only to Texans but also to North, Central and South America.
