Message: [QUOTE="General20, post: 2034350, member: 724"] I've never heard that the high water tables are due to the proximity of the Inner Harbor, but high water tables are a real problem with digging a tunnel. Pretty much every expert agrees that the community grid is the best option, but some local people are looking at the fact that the federal government will be footing the bill and thinking why not go with the expensive tunnel option if it shuts up a few loud mouths. Personally, I find the idea of wasting multiple billions creating an unnecessary tunnel distasteful, but anything is better than rebuilding an elevated highway. I would like to see the new tunnel study, one plus for the tunnel may be that they have to dig up a lot of water and sewage lines, so we might get some new infrastructure out of the deal. [/QUOTE]
