[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There were many concerns expressed on the call about transportation and traffic for this new HS. And the planning group keeps talking about a traffic study. But what I don't get is this...what happens if the traffic finds and affirms what many people already think--that traffic will be so bad that putting a HS there would be ill-advised. The school has already been approved and announced. Shouldn't the traffic study and public transportation plans have been pretty much sorted out before making an announcement? An expensive traffic study is pointless if DCPS will just plow ahead and isn't willing to make decisions based on the study's findings. And I'm tired of hearing from the same 1 or 2 people during this meetings who go on and on about the old trolley line. That's great but that's a plan that would be a decade in the making. [/quote]

I think the point of the traffic study at this point is to determine what improvements can be made vice determining retrospectively that it's a bad idea or something. Yes, there are some that are dead-set that this location/school is a bad idea no matter what (sounds like you, PP, may be one?), and the traffic study will likely not satisfy this crowd.[/quote]
