Dallas – Now that the devisive toll road vote is over, urban planners and architects are sharing plans for what the Trinity Corridor and its park will look like.

Ingacio Bunster Ossa is with the Trinity project's lead design firm, Wallace Roberts & Todd. He says the number one priority for the park is to return the river to its original, meandering path. Engineers straightened the route in the early 1900's.

Following a presentation at city hall Friday, Mr. Ossa sat down with KERA's Shelley Kofler to talk about the vision.
