This blog often covers Houston planning and politics.
Downtown Houston has just started a new program that will change transportation
downtown. Downtown Houston has adopted the “Don’t Block the Box” program in
downtown. “Don’t Block the Box” paints an x-pattern in every downtown intersection,
along with signs, warning drivers not to block the intersection as traffic
backs up. The program was originally created in Austin, TX and has found
success. The program starts today and I hope it will be successful for the City
of Houston and Downtown. I am glad that Houston is innovating new ways
to make the city run successfully.
That's a great program. It is really needed because it is so frustrating when the intersection is blocked.
