Thursday Secretary of the United States Department of Transportation Pete Buttigieg came to Dallas to unveil plans for four"pedestrian caps" - sometimes known as deck parks - over four segments of freeways in Dallas and McKinney.

All four projects will cost more than $200 million. Planners estimate that federal money handles a third of the funding. "‘It is step one towards doing things better. For making residents better off without making anybody worse off. Which is what we get to do today," said Buttigieg. "The communities that felt the brunt of that disruption were the same communities that at the time didn't have the political power or resources to stop or reshape or change those projects," said Buttigieg.‘I think there may be a problem with the IV bags': Doctor recalls stunning discovery amid string of cardiac emergencies
