UW plan for ramp worries neighbors http://www.madison.com/captimes/news/local/32539.php Selected highlights: SHOREWOOD HILLS - Village residents worry that their efforts to prevent a proposed 1,285-space parking ramp for the UW-Madison campus will be about as effective as spitting in the wind. .... [Shorewood residents are concerned about traffic, lake pollution etc.] .... Laurie Van Asten, a member of the village's Traffic Committee, questioned the wisdom of planning for a new ramp while implementing a parking demand reduction program. "Putting that ramp there is like telling your kids to clean out their closet, and then to reward them, you build them a bigger closet." [Bikies take note: ] Several residents suggested at the Monday meeting that, if a ramp must be built, it should go closer to University Avenue. The proposed location next to the tennis stadium would bring in enough motor vehicles to virtually "shut down" bicycle traffic on the Temin Lakeshore Path, said Ken Albrecht. "Once it's there, it's there forever." -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Darin Burleigh |><|\/|/\|-o [EMAIL PROTECTED] |<>|/\|\/|-o _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.danenet.org/mailman/listinfo/bikies
