No Go

Just as a suspected, the proposed plans to build an eight lane freeway through BHS. According to an article in the local section today, building the freeway in that location would also mean “having to move the nearby rail yard” which has been deemed too costly. I can’t help but wonder, besides tearing down the industrial building at BHS, and relocating the railway, wouldn’t they also have to move Mercy Hospital, the police station, and a host of other businesses in order to build an eight lane freeway through that section of town? Is it really just moving the railway that would be so costly, or is it really that it was a dumb idea to begin with?

Besides, I still don't get why we need another east-west freeway. Last I counted we already had two.
