One huge step away from prioritizing auto trips at the cost of all other users. Thanks for the reporting Matt. This would be a fantastic revolution to the transportation/environmental review process.

The current policy of providing more parking and widening streets claims to mitigate the impact but obviously makes it worse. Environmentalists should be working on getting this through state government, but I haven't heard anything about it yet. I will spread the word through email.

Plus, think of all the other traffic calming projects that would actually be implemented if LOS were not a problem. Most of the low hanging fruit (non-LOS effecting improvements) has been done on the streets at this point already.
