In an editorial published yesterday, the Star Tribune let slip a truth about the City of Minneapolis' push for putting the Central Corridore line on the new I35W Bridge (HT AAA)
"What is clear, however, is that routing the Central Corridor light-rail line across a new bridge doesn't work. Changing its route would eliminate a critical West Bank station at the University of Minnesota, attract fewer riders and add time and distance to the line. That, in turn, would lower the project's federal rating and risk its funding."
Well golly gee....maybe the editors of the Star Tribune read the Lady's musings.....Nah....I doubt it. It's probably just another one of those blind squirrel moments that our friends on Portland Avenue have from time to time.
