Instead of encouraging more people to drive, public transport needs to lead the way. The hwy still needs repaving, better sound/safety walls, and landscaping. In addition, Rancho needs bus stops that have covered shelters, seats, route maps, schedules and trash cans. I like the idea of RT line improvements and more trains, but not an added freeway lane.

Projects like these create good paying jobs, stimulate the economy, and add much needed transportation infrastructure. The legislature needs to move quickly and make the tough choices needed to bring the budget crisis to an end. By cutting wasteful spending, creating jobs and stimulating business we'll be able to pull the State out of this economic downturn. California was one of the hardest hit states due to the real estate meltdown. If we act quickly and make smart budget decisions we'll shorten the recovery and kick-start the California economy.
