[QUOTE="TCUdirtbag, post: 1620652, member: 61297"] This is hilarious. It's a whopping 0.2 miles east down Cantey and Berry to University--an actual major thoroughfare. Stadium is most definitely not a "major thoroughfare." And if TCU is going to a 100% residential campus, much of that growth will be in Worth Hills, so the pedestrian traffic across Stadium will increase significantly. If you think TCU/Fort Worth has never closed or re-routed streets around and through the campus, you're crazy (also wrong and non-observant). But clearly you chose to live by that side of campus and for some reason think living by a college campus won't present any inconveniences for you. The University can sell the closure pretty easily by throwing up numbers showing dramatically increased pedestrian traffic, pointing to student safety concerns, and reminding the city that TCU paid for a big chunk of the Berry Street redevelopment that was intended to aid traffic flow around the campus. If SMU can close roads like Stadium through their University Park (the school-city relationship is not good) neighborhood, TCU can get what they want from Fort Worth. [/QUOTE]
