I've said this before regarding capping 676, but couldn't they build a cap of a highway like 676 that is not intended to support people, parks or cars that would cost way, way less than a full cap, drastically reduce auto noise and pollution and make surrounding plots much more desirable and valuable. Whenever a cap has been proposed, it is always envisioned to support a park with dirt, grass, trees, concrete, stone and the potential for hundreds of people over head. We don't need any more of that in that part of 676 near the parkway.

What I am imagining is a steel frame with some sort of impervious surface as a roof to the highway with vent pipes, drainage and maybe skylights all surrounded by a nice looking fence that would keep people out. Something strong enough to allow maintenance workers access but not all that other park stuff.
