I tend to agree with Oboe, the caveat being you do want to define who does get to make the decisions (like the county vs. VDOT/State dynamic playing out in Va.). I don't think its up to individual neighborhoods since I don't run into difficulty getting around any particular neighborhood but its connecting neighborhoods and thats why its important to have a comprehensive transportation network across the city rather than one neighborhood being a bike lane neighborhood or whatever.

/waiting for someone to come out and talk about road opposition in light of what I just said. I think that comes down to the immense burden of proof a highway (rather than local streets for connectivity) needs to show. And because neighborhoods have vetoed roads before (along with transit lines as well) doesn't mean thats why it shouldn't have been built.
