The Columbian Editorial Board deserves praise for its brave change of heart in support of light rail on the new interstate bridge (“In Our View: Light rail on I-5 Bridge right for today, tomorrow,” The Columbian, April 24). It’s the best option for the future of our community and will accelerate the development of Vancouver’s downtown and waterfront. My family is tired of planning our professional and social lives around bridge traffic. For anyone else who is willing to rethink their position on the issue, there is room for all in the light (rail).
