MovingAhead Spring 2019 Outreach Summary 91 <br />changing behavior at all. I would very much like the traffic situation improved but a bus that no <br />one uses is not a good or efficient solution. <br /> Eugene needs to install traffic cameras to catch drivers who run red lights CONSTANTLY! In my <br />opinion, the biggest problem is at the corner of Coburg Road and MLK. Plus, Eugene Police need <br />to give tickets to pedestrians who purposely disobey the walk/don't walk signals, especially <br />downtown. It's been a major problem for years. <br /> I would also urge you to evaluate the safety of the NW Expressway. Do to the speed it seems <br />unsafe for buses pulling out. I've sat behind a bus a number of times on North Park. <br /> The most important change you can make in all corridors is to make LTD purchase land for <br />turnouts for all bus stops so the buses do not impede traffic. Secondly, do not extend any more <br />wasteful and costly EMX lines that just displace businesses and disrupt auto traffic. <br /> I would hope we would not lose a lane of traffic as a result. <br /> See comments made earlier on questioning the purpose of EMX along River Road. Rather spend <br />money on improving the congestion and delays at the River Road/Beltline interchange. I believe <br />no matter what is done for River Road that the predominate traffic and cultural aspects of the <br />Santa Clara neighborhood will be defined by the reduction of congestion at Division and River <br />Road and along the Beltline which has more traffic than I5 in the Eugene area, especially as the <br />city allows more population growth in the Santa Clara neighborhood. <br /> I would much rather roads and bridges are improved for individual drivers/commuters, as well <br />as pedestrians and bicyclists. While I think having a bus system is good for the city overall, I <br />don't want LTD to dictate how the city's transportation infrastructure evolves. <br /> Fix the roads for CARS <br /> East and West Amazon changes emphasize bikes too much. I don't want to lose parking spaces <br />or trees. <br /> Maybe carpool lanes would also help, and maybe they could share bus lanes. <br /> Interesting that the criteria that we can chose from doesn't include anything relating to <br />emissions or how the projects would affect non-transit motorists. You would think you would a <br />little more considerate towards those that are ultimately footing the bill for these horrible <br />additions to our community. <br />Environment <br /> Why the greenhouse gas theory is incorrect science <br />The Discovery — The crystal clear solar system wide climate discovery by Dr. Karl Zeller and Dr. <br />Ned Nikolov is based on official NASA data derived from space probes. They used advanced <br />mathematical analysis techniques to study the climates of rocky surfaced planets and moons in <br />our solar system. They found they could accurately predict their long term average surface <br />temperatures by knowing just two strategic facts: their distance from the Sun and their <br />atmospheric pressure. This formula has worked correctly for Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and <br />Pluto, and for Earth’s moon, Europa, Callisto, Titan, and Triton. Their predictions have been <br />proven accurate to within one degree Celsius. Like the value of Pi, this natural mathematical <br />relationship will never go away because it was created by Nature, not by man. <br />Zeller and Nikolov found that the specific gaseous composition of the atmospheres of planets <br />and moons are irrelevant to determining their long-term average surface temperatures. For <br />example, the atmosphere of Venus is composed of 96.5% carbon dioxide, while Earth’s <br />July 15, 2019, Joint Work Session – Item1
