      Totally agree. It’s going to cause a lot of people to freak out but it really needs to happen. We don’t need more roads, we need more transit and active transportation options.

      A lot of good will come from this if we can funnel the money into other transit options. The funny thing is that with alternative forms of transit, there will be less cars on the road anyway meaning no need for road expansions

        Sure but we have massive transit issues to sort out before it becomes commonplace. Our cities at least on the prairies are to sprawled out.

    It seems likely that unless they make a serious effort to build new rail transport to take its place, the delay in highway building will be as short-lived as the government.
