Saw the fire truck as i was driving north on California. Saw something even funnier! Just past there was a Metro bus stuck at the bus stop in front of the 7-11. What makes it really funny was that i’d been passed by an SDOT plow going s. on Calif. Driver had gone past this bus(driver on board, flashers on)with his plow putting up a berm alongside the bus!!! Will make it harder for the tow truck to get the bus out!!
Hammer in Hand
Good luck!
Andres,

Conversationally, we discussed the $250k/mile figure, with a little extra for planning and unforeseen expense. Under promise, over deliver. I was suggesting compromise with a phased approach, but to SDOT it makes fiscal and practical sense to do it in one shot. I can be on board with that.

I don’t typically apply for the DoN grants myself, as I would then need to recuse myself from voting at the district level. However, I’m always happy to answer anyone’s questions about them, and provide what assistance I can. Not enough folks apply for them IMO, and the Parks dept and SDOT find great value in the applications even when unfunded. The Safe Routes grant is great, thanks for the tip.
