An interchange at Racetrack would be much cheaper than building 9B.  But something tells me the backers pushing this project aren't concerned about saving money.

Agreed.  It seems as though it would be a much better idea to build the interchange at Race Track and then use the extra money that would be spent on 9B and use it for the commuter rail stations on the southeast corridor.

Well when the council members are stating that the road will open up land for development, it leads me to believe the same thing.  I wonder if any of them are landowners in that region??

It's about subdivisons, Chili's and Targets.
