Things like railroad trestles that are fifty years old (or more.) But the modern underpasses don't have them. Some could be a decision by Texas Dept. of Transportation, and some by the City of Houston. If it's TxDOT's authority, then the city can't install them, and vice versa.

I do get the impression that Mayor Sylvester Turner will implement things like that, though.
