Trucks with hazardous cargo could be allowed on busy Austin roads

AUSTIN (KXAN) — The city of Austin is working on keeping trucks with dangerous cargo away from major roads.
However, one of the two proposals would allow trucks on some of the most congested roads in Austin. Transportation officials want to share their plans with Austinites on Tuesday.
Non-radioactive hazardous materials would be allowed on:
MoPac
US 290
Interstate 35
State Highway 71
State Highway 79
The second proposal takes MoPac out of the plan and parts of I-35.
