CERTAIN FREIGHT RAILROAD PROJECTS. (a) If sufficient funds from bonds sold to construct the Central Texas turnpike project or from the Texas mobility fund are available, the department may, and is strongly encouraged to, use the funds for engineering, design, grading, and construction necessary to create a grade-separated freight rail line capable of being safely traveled by trains operating at not less than 80 miles per hour in or adjacent to the State Highway 130 corridor.
