[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] How about we do both? The county is growing population-wise, and people need somewhere to live. The "live near a Metro" only works in some parts of the county. Downcounty is just about all built up, which is why you see so many tear-downs in places like Bethesda -- there's no vacant land. So any way you slice it, people will need to live in Clarksburg, Germantown, etc. We already have bus and train service there, but not everyone will live walking distance from that. People will need to drive. The county is not dense enough upcounty to do it any other way.[/quote] You: Transit is inadequate in the upcounty, so let's build more roads. Me: Transit is inadequate in the upcounty, so let's improve transit.[/quote]
