Re: Nov. 26 Jon Caldara column.
Jon Caldara states that “RTD has no interest or incentive in ever reducing auto traffic. And trust me, they know it.”
RTD did not create the car congestion problem, so don’t blame them for it. If someone should be reducing traffic congestion, it is the people who created that problem by zealously promoting the use of cars for the last 100 years. Blame it on the highway department, now called the Colorado Department of Transportation, which has no interest in anything but generating more traffic. And letap not forget the car lovers and industry pressure groups like the Independence Institute, to say nothing of the federal, state and local politicians who passed the laws and provided the money to make it possible.
