For the remainder of January, I will be blogging at the Washington Monthly on the weekends. Please come over and check me out there.
Oh, in case you were curious, there really was a traffic study:
The study was emailed among officials at the authority on Sept. 12.
It was four pages long and found that, in essence, closing toll lanes creates traffic backups.
“By eliminating two of the toll lanes” dedicated to local traffic, “this traffic was forced to queue on local streets.”
Isn’t that special?
