Classmate Critique #2

The post Congestion In Austin was written be Lonestar State of Affairs. This post makes a brief summary about the traffic congestion in Austin. The author supports the idea that the city needs to implement a plan for the traffic issue.

I was so glad to read this post because the traffic issue is such a trouble here in Austin and it affects everyone. However, I have some questions that were not answered in your post. I feel you could of elaborated more on the proposal of the ground rail system and why it failed. Was it due to a lack of traffic of riders in a certain areas or just in general. What were the other solutions to reduce the traffic congestion? If i could make a suggestion, maybe add more statistics about Austin's congestion and about the rail system. For example, how long was the rail system in effect and what were the numbers? How close or far was the vote to shut it down.

Overall, this was a very interesting article and i look forward to researching to see what plan the city puts in effect to help alleviate or solve the traffic issue.
