Oh, I have no problem with building bike paths, and if the layout of the community and the climate makes bicycling a viable alternative through much of the year for many commuters, then they might compose part of the infrastructure necessary to satiate demand. In most American cities, however, bicycle paths at best provide recreation and exercise opportunities for otherwise obese citizens.
The necessary transportation infrastructure in many American cities involves bridges and development of new corridors as much as widening existing roads or constructing freeways roughly parallel to existing corridors. Many state departments of transportation lack the imagination to envision such new roads.
Thank you, you are now forgiven.
As I'm sure you well know, the MSM, DU, and other organizations continually monitor this website, looking for outrageous postings. We at FR take a pride in monitoring our own, and taking action when someone goes really, really, out of line.
Obviously your posting that suggested adding highway capacity as a means to reduce congested met that standard. Based on this last post, you are hereby forgiven, and please continue to post, but with reasonable caution.
