  3. To all posters bashing ODOT---they are simply following the rules the Feds make, or else risk loosing the money. (think back when Ohio had to raise the drinking age to 21 or risk loosing funds) Then they are good DOT for the state as they are looking out to keep the money flowing in from the Feds, in a state that is a "donor" stae in regards to gas tax revenues.

  11. Urban flight is complicated - the interstates only were part of the equation, they sure helped. BTW, my old boss (rest his soul) worked on the design of I-675 by WPAFB, and on the EIS for the south portion, he told me that it was first large scale EIS prepared for a highway project.

  20. Mr Sparkle replied to a post in a topic in City Discussion
    ^Hamilton County Planning Director Ron Miller said most of the county's communities are losing population because fewer people are sharing living quarters, not because the number of occupied houses, condos and apartments is dropping. The annual Census estimates don't include details on the number and size of households, but the county actually gained 8,000 households - a 2.3 percent increase - between 1990 and 2000, he said. The quote that caught my interest the most. Deer Park, where I reside, is loosing pop, but I haven't noticed any vacant houses, so houshold sizes are decreasing. Larger families were raised in smaller houses than today.
