Indeed. I can't speak as well on the topic as others in I hear at the various meetings, but basically this overpass is ugly as sin and should be torn down and Mgrath-Obrien converted into a ground level boulevard, slowing traffic down, humanizing these intersections, and removing the terrible barrier that isolates easternmost Somerville from the Union Square area. I'm not concerned about making things easy quick and easy for cars-creating car friendly roadshe creates its own demand. We have more cars driving through Somerville on 28 because of this terrible thing. Hopefully once design for green line is completed, there will be ability to focus some rallying behind efforts to get this thing taken down. In the meantime we have to make sure they don't design it to preclude the change.
