If you live in NYC please verbally tell at least two people how happy you are about congestion pricing. The nature of these things is people will complain and it's gonna get bad now that's happening at long last.
People form their opinions based on what other people say when they don't have a direct investment in an issue. Simply knowing a few people who support congestion pricing can easily reshape how the issue is seen.
But it is more likely they will hear someone complaining loudly.
Sounds like things are getting a little testy in the back rooms of the State House #mapoli
@jamesecradockjr right, and the segment from Veranda to Presumpscot is the only section that hasn’t been converted from 4 lanes to 2. As you note, that multi lane layout encourages speeding.
But that used to be the layout of the entire avenue all the way to North Deering.
This was really good!
I'd had a bad flu and am just getting back to work, but boy, it sure seems like the Globe's Old White Guy editors had an even worse week than I did...
