Chula Vistans discuss SANDAG’s rapid-transit plans
In response to Ms. Williamson's argument that utilizing Olympic Parkway would cause variables that would interfere with the system's reliability, it was also pointed out that if SANDAG were to construct its dedicated corridor on Olympic Parkway instead of East Palomar, the combination of the use of the dedicated corridor coupled with the devices that the buses will have to control intersection traffic lights, there would be no interruption of schedule reliability. I believe this is an important point as it seems to be one of SANDAG's two main objection to alternatives to the bridge. It would save almost $7 million of taxpayer money, save the impacted neighborhoods, keep pedestrian traffic less hazardous near 9 (nine) elementary and middle schools, and the only remaining drawback would be reduced walk-ability for the estimated 5-8% of the total ridership that would prefer having walkable access. Is this really good planning by SANDAG?— April 22, 2013 11:29 a.m.
