Yeah, well, I believe I supported bridge replacements and roadway replacement. I just don't support the expansion.
Sorry if that gets in the way of your tar brush and feather sack.

Ha! No, I know it all too well. I've lived in actual functioning cities and relied upon mass transit for my commutes 99 percent of the time. In fact, I see more than a little projection in your...
No, it's called induced demand. So, you know, on this topic, you totally don't know what you're talking about.
Why you ever put "planner" in your handle is a complete mystery to many of us on...
Six months after this multibillion-dollar boondoggle is done in twenty frickin' years, the freeway will ... be congested. Then we can call for another round of multibillion-dollar expansion that will...

MDOT studies. Hahahaha. The same MDOT whose study determined that Michigan's extra-heavy trucks do not do any extra damage to Michigan's roads. ...

I hear you there. We do need crosstown routes, and the city often makes decisions that make me fume. [[See also: Livernois median)
Ah, Gistok, I know you're being funny. :) Davison works fine for me up there ... to a point.
Much better than having one huge trunk road across the city would be to have several smaller routes. We...

Well, that sort of avoids the deeper issues of traffic management and why freeways don't work the way we think they should.
Anyway, as many of us on here are aware, you're sort of a booster for...
Congestion is not a product of outdated infrastructure. Congestions is a product of trying to build one road to handle all the high-speed crosstown traffic. Everybody wants to take it, and then...
All that CONGESTION! I mean, have you guys seen Manhattan? It's like a parking lot almost all day long. It's a shame to think all the prosperity that is passing them by. What they need to do is widen...
