Would you have rather they wait to acquire property and relocate utilities until they had the design locked down 100%? That was the right call. |
I'd rather they recognized the actual magnitude of the project(s) and reverted to more sensible phasing. Namely BRT for the "shovel-ready" SE. There was even a time when the experts thought it was the best phasing.
Because really there are three projects here - each of which would be the largest infrastructure project in the city's history (North, SE, core tunnel).
I don't want to throw shade at administration - they are wonderful and smart people, and they only have a small portion of blame for steering the ship into the rocks. But it's also clear that a lot of the information they provided for analysis has been wrong time and again. It was just fundamentally piss poor risk management.
But there's one thing I'm sure we can all agree on: this is mostly Sean Chu's fault.
