70% roads 30% transit I don't like. Especially when the road improvements are things like the Southeast connector which is largely to enable suburban development in Cordova Hills, etc. Torn on this one, because I do of course want to see ped, bike, rail improvements but feel like the proportion is off. I recognize that our roads are in pretty bad shape and congested though, like much of urban California.
Won't these tax dollars be allocated to the individual municipalities (county and cities) who can use them for transportation as they wish (within the 70/30 guideline)?
