Fresno don’t want it on Herndon. I agree. That area is a growing disaster. If anywhere up there, why not off Veterans Boulevard?
Madera says, “we’ll take it.” However, that is at Avenue 7 and State Route 99. State Route 99, at the river, narrows to two lanes, and idiots don’t want to merge at a proper interval. Jam to the end is what they do. Adding 2,000 cars a day to it would be dumb. However, if we want to look at this, we have another path. The High Speed Rail route.
HSR is decades out and we have a new span over the San Joaquin River. Convert it to the Costco Expressway. Build Costco and expand 99. By the time HSR needs it, we can give it back to them.
