    I feel this so much. I read this quote from my local newspaper today:

    When completed, traffic engineers predict a morning rush hour that’s expected to reduce current Boones Ferry Road to I-5 travel time from 6.5 minutes to 4 minutes.

    While an exact starting date has yet to be set, construction will begin soon for the $2.7 million project.

    $2.7MM of land widening to save… 180 seconds off of commutes.
