POLL #8: Should Market St. Be Converted To 3 Lanes?

Back in September, 2008, we met with Chad Coles with the county engineers office and discussed some ideas for the future of our neighborhood. One of the ideas we had was to convert Market, from Francis north, from four lanes to three. The main reason was safety for those traveling thru our neighborhood and for those who live or work along that stretch. Chad seemed to like the idea and said studies show almost as much traffic can flow thru with three lanes as four lanes. The county may take a closer look at this in a couple of years after additional lanes are finished on the North Spokane Corridor. Question: do you like this idea or dislike it?
