Just lemme know where to send that check ;)

I don't care which one eventually is right or wrong. I mean would I love it if traffic was no longer there and the roads could be reclaimed as pedestrian friendly? Heck yes, but I understand that some roads have to remain as arterials and that everyone in Fairfax will not be living in Tysons and that the future might still need those roads.

My point is, lets play some risk avoidance, lets not pencil ourselves in to a solution before there is even a problem. First lets get construction on the massive infrastructure we are doing out of the way and see how things work because frankly Route 7 is a shell of itself right now as far as capacity due to all the construction, as is 495, as is DTR, and all of that added on top of a brand new metro and improved bus circulation might mean that the traffic is of our own creation and not the actual condition. Either way, lets just calm down, save up the money and get design plans completed so that they actually are shovel ready (not shovel ready as in ok start designing it) so that in the worst case if it is needed that we can mobilize and fix in the same amount of time.
