[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the highway widening, the plans aren't detailed yet as that's the next phase of the project. As I recall, generally for the Am Legion bridge they will add 2 lanes each way, plus a bike lane. My guess is they'll convert the existing rigth-most "exit-only" lanes (like to Clara Barton) to thru lanes as a way to get more space.

As for Hogan, he got the Purple Line on track, [/b]and he's working on solutions to 495/270 issues. That's more progress-wise than his predecessor and same with anyone at the MoCo-level. The MoCo people in power are pretty good about complaining about any plan Hogan proposes, but never offering a real alternative.

One of Elrich's counter-proposals to solve the 495 problem was to tell people to use the ICC instead. Yes, the road that's been open 10 years -- does he think that Google Maps' GPS isn't already sending people that way, and it's just some secret road no one has ever heard of?[/quote]

This is an incredibly non-fact-based statement.

Here's what Hogan did:

1. He didn't stop the Purple Line
2. He cut the budget for the Purple Line[/quote]
