MICHALCOLE 11/03/18 8:02:36 PM #10:	Prop 6 makes bridges and roads less safe and jeopardizes public safety. Prop 6 eliminates funding for 6,500 transportation improvement projects already underway. It eliminates thousands of jobs and hurts our economy. Prop 6 is opposed by firefighters, highway patrol personnel, engineers and 300 organizations.

InfestedAdam 11/03/18 8:58:59 PM #15:	I'm all for more taxes/funding toward improving the transportation infrastructure if it was actually used for that manner. But if it is true that the funds are constantly being directed to non-transportation infrastructure related projects, I would considering voting against the gas tax. That being said, I coulda sworn we had another proposition a few years back that was suppose to narrow down what they can and cannot use the funds for? On another hand, I do find it ridiculous that we have to vote to remind them what the funds are meant for despite the original proposition yay back already stating as such. Krazy_Kirby posted... no. especially when they take over more lanes for bike lanes, which just causes more traffic Depends on the location. I've seen some places with really nice bike lanes and there's still enough lanes to keep traffic free flowing. Of course there's also places where it is not realistic to lose a lane for a bike lane. I think my city voted on such recently. It made more sense to put it on the major street but at the same time it wasn't going to be realistic given the potential traffic either. --- "You must gather your party before venturing forth" "Go for the eyes Boo!

I think my city voted on such recently. It made more sense to put it on the major street but at the same time it wasn't going to be realistic given the potential traffic either. Usually traffic is congested on those streets for the wrong reasons. Highway 19 was 3 lanes in both directions in the Temple City area and it was reduced to 2 lanes with a bike lane and dedicated parking cutouts. Before traffic used to be a beast but now a lot of traffic has diverted off of it onto other streets and the occasional person uses their bicycle instead. Its all about balancing where that traffic goes. --- Que sera, sera. Whatever happens, happens. ...and he was never heard from again. <cite>aDirtyShisno posted [p:911763537] in california...
