Did you run out of capital letters?

LOL...you obviously have a lot more vested in road construction than I do. Sorry, I think this is a particularly bad idea and won't deliver any real economic benefit to the people. I'm sure it will make Cianbro and certain businesses a lot of money, but there are better East-West options that will have a broader positive impact on our economy. This route option benefits no one. Why? Because there are no people along the proposed route.

A perfect example of why we can't keep up with the rest of the world!
people move to where new opportunities open! they leave when opportunity dies!
I've spent my life working on change -from highways,pipelines,airports,military bases,hospitals,fallout shelters power plants ,shopping centers and housing projects.
their has always been a"old and in the way" person who has fought tooth and nail to stop these projects! And a perfect example of why the east west will be built is the payne road (maine mall for one) or I-95 Through bangor(the shopping centers ) because the Investors know development will follow!
so I find that capitals get attention ,naysayers are simply a way of life and losers
know they are fighting a losing battle once questioned on their negativity. But the worse part is they are an object that takes time to overcome;and time is opportunity lost for those who need it most!
