I, too, would like to live in a future with free-flowing multilane bridges and freeways, and be able to drive when and where I please. However, financial resources and health limits will not permit it. I have some health issues and may lose my driving privileges, so good public transportation is very important to my future.
Our society can’t rely on petroleum-fueled automotive mobility forever. As a society we are reluctant to destroy neighborhoods to widen highways and to pay taxes for limitless expansion of highways. I’d be happy to see a rail transit link to Portland, even better if it radiates out to several Clark County terminals.
