“Technology will continue to improve. And maybe it's not wise to spend too much on current technology, because future technology might be better, cheaper, more accessible,” Sardiñas said

In an effort to leave no stone unturned in getting the lowest price possible, engineers are being asked to study what might be called a ‘let it flood’ scenario for fighting rising seas and persistent street flooding in Key Biscayne
The newest option, which came at the request of Council Member Brett Moss, would allow for so much street flooding that only emergency vehicles could traverse village streets at the peak times of a deluge. #BigDig #BrettMoss #

CW: Rant about the MBTA budget/big dig debt
What do you know about the #BigDig MegaProject that ran from 1982-2007 in #Boston which gave us a bridge, a couple of tunnels, & a park, but also dropped pollution numbers downtown by double digit percentages & fixed nightmare-level traffic problems on the Central Artery of 93?
I'm not sure what the final number will be for cost, but with interest its well more than $20 billion USD?
The state will continue to pay >$100 million USD on this debt annually through 2038. Thats where your fares go, not world class service.
One can draw a direct line between the debt & service failures you see today - the #MBTA has been cutting corners for decades since they don't have sufficient funding to thrive.
Solution: fund the T absurdly well over the next 5 years.
We must hire, & retain, smart, dedicated people to manage this incredibly complex system.
We must fix root causes, not patch problems.
We must over-staff front line workers who are well compensated & do a great job providing rider-facing services.Its an exercise for the reader how to fund this change. I don't think it should be the average low-income bus rider.
Rather, the MBTA must stop relying on rider fares & instead tax the rich/corporations/landowners.

@LikeItOrLumpIt Yeah, there's something about the way this park is situated (it's a human-made hill on top of an old garbage dump and landfill excavated from #boston's #bigDig ). Always windy.
