Yeah, connect the jetport by constructing an underground roundabout where the tunnel passes under St John St, then add a branch to PTC and PWM.

Oh it can have an off ramp there, but it should keep going to Portland Head Light. Maybe this is also the solution PTC <> PWM? And while we've got the boring machine in Portland, let's put all of the Commercial St traffic in a tunnel and turn the surface into a park.

For anyone wanting to catch up: https://www.biddefordmaine.org/m/faq?cat=62 https://www.une.edu/cas/schools/marine-environment/facilities/proposed-research-pier From the FAQ on the city website, these two seem to summarize the issue:

We could put our money where our mouths are and finally form the aB Development Corp.

If someone is interested in redevelopment I hope they at least try to reach out to the owner of the 5 and 13 Bates St lots - it'd be nice for that corner to become something more than a used car sales lot.

4,600 daily passenger trips serving 51,000 jobs - I assume that would roughly equal 2,300 round trips? I'll take it, but what's the plan for the larger issue?

Mehhh, disappointing there isn't residential over the J and U retail.

Portland to weigh repairing or rebuilding its historic Expo They can hire a consultant, but they have to go with the $30M repair, right? The city has no money and replacement would cost, what, 3-5x the repair? That said, I'm interested in the possibility of rethinking that entire area...

Here's the PDF with the renderings: https://www.westbrookmaine.gov/DocumentCenter/View/5928/Rock-Row-Master-Plan-Workshop-Materials-PDF
