Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 2363469, member: 405"] What they are looking at is South State Street as the primary artery that they transition from highway to local traffic. They plan to break it up into 3 different places you would get off, I believe at Brighton, Colvin and Kennedy. Brighton would be what it is now, and allows you to drive up to Ainsley and Nob Hill, and the South Side/Valley. Colvin connects you to Manley, South Campus, Nottingham/Drumlins neighborhood. Kennedy is about 4 blocks away from where traffic gets dumped down on to Adams St., so that would give a better runway to get off the highway for University, hospital and downtown traffic. It's a pretty good plan. There's no need to add 3 lanes of local traffic. Some improvements to 2 lanes in each direction will be needed in a few places, but there are a lot of open lots on the South Side. [/QUOTE]
