Re: Anti-car democrats are a road hazard

I am complaining that he equated the need (when there was in fact no need) of a fast drive to the Hamptons that has since been accomplished by Sunrise Hwy with that of decimating 2 dozen communities on a barrier island. There is also the LIRR. He simply pitted automobile access Hamptons against decimating Fire Island residents and tourism when there was no purpose for doing so.

When the Shore Pkwy was built, cars were not important. East Bronx was.
That was not forward thinking because East Bronx is still under-served by public transit, only now being solved by a commuter railroad service. Never did he propose a transit project.

Ask Atlanta and Houston how building 10 and 20 lane highways has helped their congestion.
