Did anyone else read through the sad excuse for a transportation plan from ConnectSA?

https://therivardreport.com/connects...ortation-plan/

Where is the vision? The budget calls for 20x money to be spent on highway expansion than transit. It comes no where close to realizing VIA's Vision 2040 plan, implementing only two of the corridors as BRT (one of which is 10+ years away and would likely not ever actually get funded). I get trying to get suburban sprawlers to vote for a plan but most cities have tried doing a 50/50 split between transit and auto spending. This is way too lopsided towards auto traffic and is encouraging additional sprawl.
