Hallucinating About Transit in St. Louis

STL Post Dispatch Oped by Kathleen Henry & Michelle Tham
In which it is proposed that a better solution to a new Mississippi River Bridge in STL would be lower light rail fares and HOV lanes.

It is baseless rhetoric to suggest that transit or high-occupancy vehicle lanes are a substitute for a new bridge over the Mississippi. Neither alternative can take enough people where they are going to make a material difference iin trafficcongestioin. No believable computer models or plans say otherwise.
