Boots, rail is going to make traffic worse.   The city is approving more development BECAUSE of rail.   

The problem is the city chose to build the most expensive and lumbering form of rail.  

I agree nobody likes traffic but rail won't help ease traffic.    It needed to address UH Manoa/Punahou to help with traffic but it doesn't.  It's just a wasteful goverment project at this point.
