But a plan to re-route half that traffic underground has some neighbors very upset. The thought of a tunnel 100-feet below my property makes me sick. It's going to damage my property values. Jane Wigginton is one of many Mockingbird Lane homeowners opposed to the Mockingbird Lane Toll Tunnel. Five miles would run 100-feet below Mockingbird.
Some neighbors worry about noise and ventilation.
Stewart Rodgers and other concerned neighbors met planners Monday night, who compare the project to the safety of the DART tunnel, Lance Klenk's not convinced. Investors wanting to build this tunnel below Mockingbird aren't even sure it's feasible. First, they need approval from the cities of Dallas, University Park and Highland Park. The slow-moving project is still a long way from becoming a reality. Monday, it hit a bump in the road.
