I think we need the boulevard to elevate congustion coming into downtown. It is a total mess without it right now. Most people coming from the west down the Hefner parkway are getting off at tenth to avoid the congestion. Why can’t the boulevard come down at classen at grade and classen tunnel under the boulevard. We have to start think 3 dimensional not just up and left to right or in a big circle.

Paul, thank you for your concepts. We will promote them as another option.

This is very similar to the “No Boulevard” alternative I recently became aware of. It makes a lot of sense and hopefully will be given equal consideration with the other proposals.

Please keep the ideas coming. This is certainly worthy of discussion and represents another potential compromise between competing schools of thought. The proposed streetcar route only comes as far west as Robinson so Paul’s concerns about the streetcar’s advocates may not come to fruition.

…this is a good solution to the question: “Why do we need a road where previously there was ZERO traffic?”

(Streetcar on the Park would be very cool.)
