What's UMD's leadership smoking? Campus Dr. during rush hour simply does not move. LRT can help alleviate that by providing an alternative means of transit. Close Campus Dr. to private vehicles and the speedup is greater. This will also nearly eliminate electromagnetic interference from spark plugs and the like. UMD's transit hub is in the middle of campus on Campus Dr., do they plan to move that? This hub supports UMD's bus system, a costly undertaking. The Purple Line will replace the Metro shuttle completely at a lower per-passenger cost. It can also reduce demand for other UMD buses, allowing for further savings.

Seriously, what is going on in the minds of UMD's administrators? I can't see the underlying logic. Maybe others can.
