Government should prioritize the maintenance of existing roads and the construction of new roads.
@9NG5C9F 5 days5D
Yes, but not public transportation infrastructure.
@5ZYN8CZ 7 days7D
Yes, better to fix old roads than to build new ones, but road infrastructure is often already overbuilt and some of it such as urban freeways should be converted back to rail/bike/path/land.
@9NC9GJ21wk1W
Yes, unless new infrastructure is required to ease transportation delays for vital goods/services.
@9NBNRNN 1wk1W
No, as long as new infrastructure is exclusively public transportation
@Paculino 1wk1W
Prioritize rail first, then roads used by buses, then bike paths and sidewalks
