One ramp down, one to go

Last week's C-J article announced that the Bridges Project plans to remove the 3^rd Street ramp. YES! Everyone who loves the 9^th Street ramp, raise your hand. That's what we thought. The 9^th Street ramp does provide access to downtown, but is it worth widening I-64 over the Great Lawn by 50% to 225 feet? And another thing, why aren't the pro-Bridges folks screaming about how removing the 3^rd Street ramp will create GRIDLOCK? Because it won't, and neither will removing the waterfront expressway.
