[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s hope rebuilding the bridge goes better than building the Purple Line.[/quote] It will. The purple line is mostly about helping people. The bridge is more about helping commerce. The bridge might even get rebuilt before the Purple line opens. [/quote] A major problem with the Purple line is that it's planning and construction requires a ton of cross-agency collaboration, plus Hogan's shenanigans with contracting out aspects of it, have made it a logistical $hitshow. The key bridge is just one bridge, entirely owned by and run by one agency (Toll authority). It will be a straightforward project and, since fully federally funded with expedited funds, will actually be an economic boon to the city because of all the jobs created by the reconstruction project.[/quote] Yes, I agree with all of this. I didn’t realize that it will be fully federally funded. That’s great for the city, the county, and the state. [/quote]
