The October issue of Governing Magazine's cover story is:
"Rethinking the Urban Speedway: For decades, highway engineers focused on
designing wider, straighter, faster roads. Now, moving traffic quickly is
no longer the sole goal."
http://governing.com/articles/10speed.htm
A notable quote, from NJ DOT engineer Gary Toth:
"The traditional engineering solution to road problems is to make the road
wider, straighter and faster." "Well, wider, straighter and faster is not
always better."
The author also notes that what is novel is not *what* is being said, but
*who* is (finally) saying it...

"To build a road is so much simpler than to think of what the country
really needs."
-- Aldo Leopold
