You mean $2.3 billion (conservative estimate)

There are pros and cons to this. I-270 to PG County needs some alleviation of congestion desperately, but I don't know if this is the right time and place to construct a $3million overpass.

Montcoburn58 is right. That what I exactly thought when I saw this on Fox news at 5. I think stupid environmentalists will ruin whole American eventually. As a foreigner, I'm really sorry to see that American can't realize the worst things having done by these extremists.....

I happen to agree with bikergal on this one. The sad reality of this video is shown at the end when the deer and fox are walking by. Something this guy will never see in his back yard ever again.

Vehicle miles traveled have been falling for the past two years in response to rising oil prices. The problem the ICC was intended to solve is dissolving in the face of rising oil prices. World oil production is at or near its peak. The time for the ICC has already gone.

I'm not a planner, but I'm guessing our current transportation debacle is founded in policies set 50 years ago, when all emphasis was placed on expanding roads and highways rather than public transportation.

I understand your displeasure and may be sympathetic to your plight. Believe me, I have no disrespect. I just cannot help myself in identifying a dual standard: i.e. "its Ok for me to cut down trees to make way for my house but not you for a highway". Would it be Ok if it were a developer clearing the tract for housing? The bottom line is that you cannot keep increasing number of vehicles and miles driven without increasing capacity of highways, it is nonsensical to think so.

Would you be this snide if the thing being constructed along your back fence was a six-lane, 18-mile highway? Come on now, MontCoBum, answer honestly. Granted, a house has an impact on climate change, but there's no real analogy here. You know that. Oh, by the way, you can replant trees, dozens of them, around a house. You can't plant even one tree in the middle of a highway. |
