Sure, its expensive. So are new roads. And we don't have money. True.

But if the idea is good, removes some of the blight caused by the construction in the first place, and commerce can be aided [[purpose of the road in the first place, btw), then I think you first decide that this is what you want your roads to look like, and then you lobby for federal support. And you might never get it.

Sure better way to spend money than ADA curbs, don't you think.
Sure its a great idea, but the last thing you want is the government spending money on this only to have the stores empty or have other businesses complain how MDOT has subsidized the new businesses that are taking traffic away from their door.
