The Midwest is seeing a groundswell of activism against highway widening projects that crush both neighborhoods and local economies. In particular the below article notes that many of these projects (like LA County's 710 expansion) were conceptualized decades ago, in the 'Fifties and 'Sixties, before induced demand and the harms of highway building were known, but continue to lurch through antiquated planning departments like "zombies." http://t.co/Btilb0XOdQ Rick -- Richard Risemberg http://www.bicyclefixation.com http://www.SustainableCityNews.com http://gridlogisticsinc.com http://www.rickrise.com
