Much of the work looks like it is just redone a short time later. My concern is congestion because I live on 405. I have no choice other than to get a new job. I hope the Christine Gregoire vs. Dino Rossi race for governor will address transportation. We need some solutions and some relief from congestion. High gas prices are here to stay. How much of our transportation money is spent on mass transit and how much on roads is what I want to know. I think too much is spent on too few people making life miserable for everyone else.
