FHWA followed up with our office a few days after the blog to “inform” us that the new policy statement “does not create new any new requirements for transportation agencies.”

So, Andy, you are right. Without the public demanding that projects consider the need for pedestrians, transit riders, cyclists, children, elderly and people with disabilities, project implementers will go right on building roads for cars.

I like LaHood’s attitude. His heart is in the right place. I worry that the wrong people are in his ear. He needs people like YOU in his ear!

You’re right, it’s imperative to watchdog and maintain the integrity of projects.
