State transportation department officials on Thursday overruled a decision by the Houston district office to stop putting directions to gun shows on freeway message signs.
Texas Department of Transportation officials in Houston had suspended the use of the signs to direct motorists to firearms-related events, citing concerns about their use for a Houston gun show days after the Newtown, Conn., school shooting.
But the suspension didn't last long. State transportation officials reversed course after the Houston Chronicle reported the local decision.
