I live near one of the major station projects and I can definitely understand all the criticism from the local businesses, foot traffic is heavily impacted.

Still worth it in the long run though.

yea, there will always be an impact to traffic, which sucks, but theres really no way to do large scale construction WITHOUT an impact.

Dont doubt that the benefit will outweigh the negatives within a year.
