This podcast contains comments from the May 27, 2021 College Station city council meeting. Speakers include Elizabeth Cunha, Troy Rother, and Bryan Woods.

Motorists in and out of A&M Consolidated High School are now dealing with a new U-turn ban on Nueces Drive near Harvey Mitchell Parkway.

Five College Station city councilmembers voted for the ban at their last meeting.

Elizabeth Cunha, who with Bob Brick abstained from the vote, shared her opposition to the ban with city traffic engineer Troy Rother.

Cunha said U-turns were necessary to access the one way frontage road in front of the school due to the median that is on Nueces Drive. TxDOT, which owns the frontage road, installed the median several years ago.

Towards the end of a ten minute discussion, city manager Bryan Woods said the U-turn ban was recommended by city staff, TxDOT, and College Station ISD.
