So I have began to wonder since the Columbia River Crossing Task Force folded this summer into a small, ten member "project sponsorship council meeting" with equal amounts of public and private interest, why it was not covered by the local news media or video taped for rebroadcast on the local cable televisions stations in Oregon or Washington?
And why it is that there is getting such minimal coverage of the Final DEIS process and study that could shape this region for a hundred years because of one bridge?
Am I personally missing some thing or has the media simply not cared to cover a four billion dollar project (or could be sharply higher..)
Ok, folks, I would like to see some coverage of this vital transit, commuter and freight connection between the Portland and Vancouver.
Or does Portland want the freight want to bypass this clogged artery, go through Longview-Kelso and over the Lewis and Clark Bridge to Highway 30, then come into Portland with a less clogged way?
Is the Port of Portland close to this major link between Clatskanie, Vernonia, Astoria and many other columbia river towns on the Oregon side?
Guys, its time to wake up and smell the roasting morning coffee. because if you do not put pressure on the media and find out what is going on with your bridges, it will be done for you.
