"2-mile section of Verona Road" ... "average intersection delays exceeding 100 seconds per vehicle..." P. ES-3
It just doesn't matter! I cannot fathom how 100 seconds is being taken so seriously. Is 100 seconds really an issue worth so much consideration and discourse? I can imagine several much more important issues which do merit extensive discussion and debate on how to best encourage a happier life. Namely, to avoid a commute trapped in a steel and plastic cage. Individual choices (to not travel to the destination at all, to consolidate trips, to live closer to the destination, etc.) require no highway construction. Or alternatively, consider the cost of a 100-second delay to all travelers and ask, "Does this really matter?" Is it worth over $500 million to create a concrete temple to a faster commute which saves 100 seconds? --- "Comments on the SDEIS are encouraged from all members of the public and are due by Friday, December 17, 2010." http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/projects/d1/verona/index.htm These are comments on the supplemental and draft environmental impact statement (SDEIS/DEIS) reports for the Dane County US 18/151 (Verona Road) corridor.
