accompanying environmental impact studies. Etc. Etc.
How are the invironmental impacts of Hwy 160 ?
Wouldnt it be better and more invironmently frindly to serve the Ski aera with one or two trains a day instead of 3- 4000 cars a day ?
If the car industry will not improve their ecologial thinking tehre will be no more fossil based travel within 30- 40 years. All others like fuel cell, H-drive are still not reaqdy for use in mass production. Even after 40 years of develpopment slowed down by the gas lobby.
Besides, even if such a line were ever built, wouldn't it be a wintertime maintainance nightmare?
As I remmeber winter maintenance on Hwy 160 isn't easy at all too !!!!
