They are now looking at Speed--Tables to get articulated motor
coaches across them without much fuss. Seems to be rather successful in
Portland and they are testing the idea here.
They did that in a large parking lot here and have recently removed
them or scaled them back -- down the Peninsula somewhere -- too many
complaints.
Auto is king here -- will have to see what happens!
