Not very far for work, it would have to be quicker or as quick as if I drove and I've walked a couple of miles to the store. I walk 3-4 miles most days for exercise so the heat doesn't phase me.

What? No. The Katy Freeway expansion is no where near here (several miles west of downtown, past 610) and the infrastructure in question here is old and was designed and built 30-40 years ago. It's also where most of the major freeways in town converge; 10, 59, 45 and 288.
