So, $1bil in 'new' funding avaliable over 5 years, and they want to spend $50 mil on more pavement for busses to use on sholders and more park and ride lots. This sounds like pavement companies are getting a windfall instead of multi-modal providers.
They've got *nothing* about projected economic benefits and traffic usage across multiple ideas and why this idea is the best. They are basically telling me on this web site of theirs 'our plan is the best, more money is good, keep on paving!' Not even a vague statement saying that other options are not the best. I *hope* the legislature takes some time to evaluate multiple options instead of just blindly checking off on 'build more, build often'.
