Illinois legislators aren't even hiding it. In the second paragraph of the bill to expand managed lanes on I-55:

"WHEREAS, Commuters have limited public transit options for
their commutes, which has consequently led to increased
congestion, long and unreliable travel times, reductions in safety, and increased costs for delivery of goods and
services..."

It should be noted & highlighted that the traffic in this area doesn’t even come close to warranting this type of interchange, let alone this many lanes. To the south of the map this road (PA rt 413) then goes downhill across busy train tracks into another small colonial era town area. To the north is a 2 lane road through a wooded area near a county park, through open land and connects to another colonial era town.

PENNDOT wants to shove this monstrosity into a quiet old town.

Ach als erstes bauen sie ja die A100 weiter quer durch die Stadt, dann rollt ja alles wieder...😉

@Radical_EgoCom @autolycus Overall people are very unimaginative, they cannot imagine change, so they do not want change. Even when they travel to nicer places like the Netherlands, they cannot imagine the same back home, and continue asking for #OneMoreLane. They made the fucked up decision of moving to exurbia, and refuse to admit the mistake, imagine living elsewhere, instead insisting everyone to suffer their motoring in front of every door in the pseudo-city.

"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex.
It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage - to move in the opposite direction."
-- E. F. Schumacher, Ökonom

But I was told #OneMoreLane would fix it 🙃 #BanCars

"If a city had increased its road capacity by 10 percent between 1980 and 1990, then the amount of driving in that city went up by 10 percent. If the amount of roads in the same city then went up by 11 percent between 1990 and 2000, the total number of miles driven also went up by 11 percent."
-- Adam Mann, Journalist (Oakland, CA)
