I-5 Bridge: Cancel Light Rail, Add Two Lanes Each Way
Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description
Douglas Tweet of Camas argues IBR's own FSEIS data shows the recommended one-auxiliary-lane design fails to reduce congestion, while a two-auxiliary-lane design reduces northbound congestion by 31% and cuts travel time by 60%. He says the $15.2 billion project devotes half the bridge to modes used by just 2.3% of travelers. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/letter-i-5-bridge-eliminate-light-rail-include-two-auxiliary-lanes-each-way-instead/ #I5Bridge #IBR #LightRail #Transportation #ClarkCounty #Vancouver #Camas #WashingtonState #Opinion #TrafficCongestion
