Loop a step backwards for BR
If you do any research in urban planning, you will see a recurring theme in transportaion studies, Increasing Interstate capacity does not alleviate traffic problems. The increased sprawl will only cause more commuting and in a few years we will be exactly were we started, but billions of dollars in the hole. We need to offer transportion choices for our residents who chose to commute. That is the only answer to our traffic problems. So many other cities in the country are realizing that we can no longer build around the automobile. These cities will leave BR in the dust.
