[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by NightCrawler here is a pretty good article about why the bridges need to be replaced. http://www.news-star.com/stories/061904/New_15.shtml as for why they are routing I-40 where they are, i have no idea. i guess sending it through an unused rail yard is better than tearing down someones house and foecing them to move like they do in California. [/quote] Moving it through an unused rail yard is the worst idea ever. Especially if Oklahoma is considering trying to keep the upper income downtown and if the population density satisfies Istook's requirements. He just hates rail period which is why he needs replacing. Jacksonville FL has the same population density as OKC and they are already planning for their rail system. Unfortunately I will have to comment on 'chunks of concrete' falling issue. When they raised the amounts trucks can carry back in the 70's, our bridges have deteroriated at an exponential rate. My recommendation is that they reroute trucks off of the bridge and unto I-240 where there's no long bridges. I don't care about out of state truck drivers using our highways. I just care about OKC's future. Other cities reroute trucks, why can't OKC?
