The "naked" Surface option, no matter some vague interest among some politicians, can not gain enough political traction to be implemented unless there is agreement that we need a fairly long-term period in which the Viaduct is Repaired and the infrastructure Prepared.
The Rebuild will never happen. I have explained why extensively on this blog. The intense anti-Rebuild uproar I hear now (and with which I heartily agree) simply confirms my opinion.
The "Repair & Prepare" will be the last man standing and a compromise -- albeit grudging, as are most compromises -- which can be accepted by all parties.
I know that Peter Steinbrueck supports such an approach and I wish he would discuss it more often.
It is tragic that the Governor's office doesn't seem to be listening.
