I did not know about this UD idea for the Exit 150 area so my question might be off kilter but, if the whole point was to close the truck stop and eliminate traffic congestion at this intersection, wouldn't developing it just bring the traffic congestion back? If Exit 150 becomes the destination itself then I can't imagine commuters trying to drive through it every day.Leonorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04701518822526054010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32199165.post-77528112838250191182016-09-21T04:07:15.365-04:002016-09-21T04:07:15.365-04:00This sounds so familiar.

They are allowed to build on floodplains and green belt - and spurn other sites because having to reclaim them would cut too far into their profits. Councils attempt to make them provide more social housing, only issuing permits if they agree to include a unit or two. Repeatedly, they refuse to develop a site altogether if including lower value, smaller dwellings for first time buyers is required. We will never get what people need so long as the only two acknowledged benefits are low cost of production and high cost of sale. We have to stop being obsessed with cost and profit and start thinking about social and individual needs and benefits instead. These should have the highest priority.Briarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06242731014996459484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32199165.post-71556069491105298272016-09-20T15:59:42.588-04:002016-09-20T15:59:42.588-04:00The traffic is worse not better.

It gets worse with every $ that is spent on it. Rena Worthenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08902543706207306539noreply@blogger.com
