Gotta invest in some of the busier local roads with all the development going on around here.

walking around downtown and esp Journal Square, there isn't really much they can to vis a vis easing the coming auto nightmare in those areas, except for making more of those roads one way (which is something i guess) the roads are too narrow to be widened without using current pedestrian ROWs, not to mention the great bike lanes that they've instituted. JC needs to invest in better public transit into the city, they need express bus lanes on their north/south routes (JFK blvd, Palisade ave, Bergan, Westside, Garfield aves, hopefully a light rail thru journal square somehow or something. upgrade the jitneys, give them priority or something but the Last thing i'd want to do is commute there via car in say, 3 years. as bad as it is now the traffic is going to be muy merde once the a lot of those buildings are done. all imho of coiurse
