Well Ferguson today said (almost a direct quote) 'I refuse to support any [transit initiative] that permanently eliminates car lanes on main or king'. His reasoning is that the majority of taxpayers in this city drive a car and have no choice but to drive a car every day, and taking lanes away is going to cause permanent end-of-the-world scaled traffic problems.
So if anyone is turning this into an urban vs suburban battle, it's definitely not us on this forum.
