Traffic Management

Congestion in the mountains is motivating legislators to look into radical new ways to relieve it. This new plan involves adding a lane in the direction of greatest demand, during the times of greatest demand.

This is exactly the opposite of their position on the Sante Fe corridor, where rush hour congestion is dealt with by effectively narrowing a 3-lane road to two.

Of course they could cover their butts by designating the 3rd lane an HOV lane. Don't know what it's like now, but back when I went skiing, hardly anyone went alone.
