After the SMART GM debated himself he left and was replaced by the person he should have debated, Mike Arnold. This fellow rambles on about a dead and finished issue. Attacks the credibility of SMART. Claims traffic will be congested by SMART in San Rafael. Questions whether SMART will ever be opened for traffic. Raises issue of only 400 people will use train in San Rafael while 9000 people use the bus transport system and the train is now going to be displacing the bus station and clogging up the streets. Cui bono???
Spotswood asks good question about mitigation measures for San Rafael traffic impacts. Arnold's riposte is: pressure the San Rafael City Council to not allow SMART to cross 2nd Street to Larkspur.
