While driving around south Texas last week, I saw there was some more progress on that overpass in Falfurrias.

The wiry strands from my last visit are now encased in pillars of concrete, and horizontal support beams for the overpass are now in place.

The “downtown” area of Falfurrias is directly behind me where I took the photos. If you take the road going straight past the Burger King, you’ll get to Kingsville in about 40 minutes. To the left where the overpass is pointing is North and will get you to Alice, Texas. To the right going south about an hour is McAllen.

The overpass project is moving pretty fast. Since Falfurrias is the first town past the inspection checkpoint, I wonder if they’re going to run the overpass all the way south to meet it?
