[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Transportation is the cornerstone of economic development. If you deny the ability to upgrade infrastructure without an alternative, the economy will not grow. [b]There is no alternative proposed by TPB.[/b] They have only proposed further studies. [/quote] There are multiple alternatives proposed by [u]the members of[/u] the TPB, though.[/quote] The TPB did not endorse or approve any alternative. They only blocked the project and proposed studies. [/quote] The TPB cannot approve projects that have not been proposed, and the only thing Hogan has proposed is his P3 toll lane project.[/quote] The individual views of any one member are irrelevant. Good grief. But, but …pffffft. The blocked it, at the behest of the county council, who have no alternatives. Meanwhile, they did not block VAs HOT lanes and would not have blocked the extension of those lanes to the bridge. The council did this and they have no plan. [/quote] Actually through the proposal of the county executive. Both the county executive and the members of the county council have proposed alternatives. Will the Hogan administration consider any of them, or will they continue to insist on trying to ram their proposal through? If you're upset that representatives from Virginia jurisdictions voted to not approve a Maryland road project, then you should go yell at the representatives from Virginia jurisdictions.[/quote]
