LET’S DEMAND THE IBR CANCEL THE MONSTER BRIDGE, BUILD AN IMMERSED TUBE TUNNEL INSTEAD, ELIMINATE TOLLS, AND SAVE & REPURPOSE THE HISTORIC INTERSTATE BRIDGE!
THE INTERSTATE BRIDGE REPLACEMENT (IBR) SALES TEAM MISLED US!
Not only has the IBR failed to provided full disclosure about its “Bridge Replacement” designs, in briefings to our elected officials the IBR team headed by Greg Johnson calls the tunnel option a “Myth,” which is refuted by the IBR’s own Tunnel Concept Assessment Rev 2!
The Interstate Bridge Replacement (IBR) Project committee is pushing a monster bridge design that will be 3-times as high as the current bridge, costing $7-$12 billion, will not be fully earthquake proof, but will take 15-years to build. It will damage the local environment & livability while imposing monster tolls that range from $3 – $15 each way, doing little to relieve traffic congestion.
The IBR wants to replace our historic Interstate Bridge with a 175 ft tall $7-$12 billion dollar monster toll bridge, to take 15-yrs of cost overruns to build, when it can save our historic bridge and save $$ billions by switching to an Immersed Tube Tunnel that's less cost and less time to build.
