Completion of Rainier will help with traffic congestion in this area, but not for 4-8 years, and not in the seeable future if the gas tax is repealed this November. We must begin to look at other measures, such as traffic engineering, stoplight timing, improved public transit, car/vanpools, and improved/safer bike routes throughout our city. We must find ways to incentivize/nudge employers and employees in these directions. All of these measures, if successful, will lead to fewer people avoiding Hwy 101.
