The intersection is a nightmare but as a resident of McLean and someone who is frustrated on a weekly basis trying to leave my neighborhood- I feel closing the ramp is EXTREMELY short sighted-yes that is right I am AGAINST it! Posting the police at the intersection has been very effective. Not to mention, the Marylanders who tried to U turn at that very dangerous intersection for years, but were finally stopped in their tracks. Congratulations Marylanders, you got what you asked for. Especially when the Governor of Virginia lives near the neighborhood and gets completely fed up with effects of Waze and its direct ramifications. This includes blocking the box (most of the time), or the occasional Marylander who thinks thy are witty and will drive right TO the cop and pass the island (ie: instead of joining his fellow Marylanders on the offramp - this occasional snowflake bypasses his fellow offenders all together and makes a right AFTER the actual off ramp island - right AT the offramp.) Oh, and ask mommy and daddy (the commonwealth, and the FTA) to being looking seriously at Purple Line extension from Bethesda to Tysons, ASAP.Īre there people in Fairfax who don't themselves drive everywhere and can thus with a straight face tell other people to not drive everywhere? I don't have a dog in this fight but the hypocrisy and NIMBYism here is sort of stunning.ĭo you any other retorts? I know have tunnel vision, but really, so sad.Īnonymous wrote:There are a few problems at work with this complete mess that is GTP:įirst, there is a cop that has been stationed on GTP because Marylanders do anything at all to get onto that part of the beltway, no matter how. What Fairfax is doing appears to not be working. That is straightforward, and the sacrifices Fairfax will need to make. What are you babbling about? If people in Fairfax seriously want fewer people commuting from Maryland, they need to both stop subsidizing employers to move to Va, and examine all policies that limit growth close to employment centers in Fairfax. Not everyone who lives in Virginia subscribed to the local politics, but they make it work. Ask mommy and daddy for a down payment and bite the bullet. What you are doing simply is not working. Clearly you are feeling said inevitable repercussions. If you refuse to move, and insist on acting like that is everyone/anyone else’s problem, it only comes back on you. Sometimes grown adults have to make sacrifices. You behaving as a petulent child does not make your life better. How do I put this gently? Grow the eff up. Tell the FFX Bos not to give in to NIMBYs. Tell Reston 20/20 not to fight to limit density in Reston. How about the Marylanders find a job in Maryland? Or move to Virginia so they are not driving like mindless idiots (theres a challenge for you). Work will be subject to weather conditions.Anonymous wrote:I have a brilliant idea. 30, straight through traffic signal to I-90 westbound on-ramp.Īll lanes are scheduled to be open at 5 a.m. 128) southbound to I-90 westbound: Take Exit 24 to Rte. 30 westbound, left on Park Road to I-90 eastbound on-ramp. 128) to get to I-90 eastbound: Take Exit 24 to Rte. 30 westbound, right on River Road to I-90 westbound on-ramp. 128) northbound to I-90 westbound: Detour to Rte. 128) to get to I-90 eastbound: Traffic will be detoured to Rte.
