Two failed restaurants. Looks like the easement continues to pass in front of the recently renovated McDonald's to the west. It serves no useful purpose to traffic.<br />Sullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05302697348406893598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128562743162979576.post-52421240429377916552018-09-13T23:42:49.336-04:002018-09-13T23:42:49.336-04:00Oh, brother - total absurdity flipping BRT's p...Oh, brother - total absurdity flipping BRT's problems and trying to pin them on Hogan's ingenious Express Lanes plan.<br /><br />First, NO homes or businesses are confirmed for demolition under the Hogan plan. In fact, state officials previously said they would use flyover ramps to avoid taking homes in tight spots.<br /><br />In contrast, we know that homes and businesses will be demolished - for certain - alone Georgia Avenue, Veirs Mill, 355 and other BRT routes.<br /><br />It is $10 million BRT that is the boondoggle, with pie-in-the-sky ridership numbers, and no parking.<br /><br />Meanwhile, Hogan's express lanes plan costs residents virtually nothing beyond the toll if they choose to use the optional new lanes, while addressing the mode of transportation that 92% of County residents use.<br /><br />The choice is clear.Robert Dyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01975969463714952623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128562743162979576.post-48606365337072756702018-09-13T13:12:59.959-04:002018-09-13T13:12:59.959-04:00“Quite a few homes and businesses will be partiall...“Quite a few homes and businesses will be partially or entirely condemned if that plan goes forward as generally described now.”<br /><br />Not nearly as many as will be condemned under Hogan’s pie-in-the-sky 270 widening boondoggle/election year stunt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
