Working to understand the complex connections between people, cities, and environments

congestion / development / light rail

Give us the road rather than the rail

12/04/200912/04/2009 Lisa Schweitzer

Residents of Tigard, OR suggested in a poll by the Tigard News that they would rather widen 99W from 5 to 7 lanes than build parallel light rail, and they don’t really want growth via density. They want new developments.

I foresee a dustup.

The comments, as always, are interesting.

HT to Peter Gordon.
