It could well be better to knock some down in an organized way. If the alternative is to have committees and referendums and posturing until nature decides which ones to take.
- steveklabnik 5y agoThe devil is in the details. What's "an organized way" if not "committees and referendums"? Even just the traffic impact studies alone to figure out what would happen when taking out each bridge, let alone that very often they'd impact each other and so you'd also need to figure out what happens with traffic for combinations of bridges, seems like a daunting and expensive task to me.
- FireBeyond 5y agoPhase it. You don't have to nominate every bridge and start simultaneously. Like you say. Choose a few, remove those, then re-evaluate what traffic looks like now.
- steveklabnik 5y agoI wouldn't expect anyone, even the OP, to suggest undertaking 150 demolitions simultaneously. That still doesn't help you decide which bridges.
