I never heard of that but I have seen a lot of this:
"Want a project built and fixed fast and at a low cost? Too bad. Your local politician needs union support on Election Day, and isn't going to push union construction outfits to do either. Want a road paved in your neighborhood? You better hope your district is important enough to someone running for office first. Want the best engineering and management experts to run your city's transportation system? Well, they're probably going to have to take a back seat to your mayor or governor's political cronies."
The latter would be PB, who only utter gospel, who would never whitewash a noise issue here or there. Or tailor a report to accord with a political boss's wishes.
Yeah, Tehachapi is just as fast as Tejon. Tell that to the motorists on I-5.
