That sounds way more manageable and fundable than the proposed phase 1 in the MP.

My interpretation is that design work on the braided airport entrance is already underway and may be the first visible construction project from this list. This may take some coordination with TxDOT's project to extend/reconstruct the SH 71 FRs from 183 to Spirit of Texas.
Per your list above, then, the
West Infill needs to come before the tunnel as shown. And other operational improvements in the existing BJT must be done before the CC can open. Ultimately, the CC project may or may not include the tunnel, but it sounded like they may all fall under one CMAR contract. But you may assume that the CC can't open without the tunnel.
All of this is obviously subject to change, but that's what I understand of the status of things right now.
