I sure hope you're right here. Given the outcome of the weekend election, I'm not sure who will be debating exactly. Probably posters on this and other boards, I guess. Robust? Sure. Futile? Almost certainly.
But I do hope that some common sense prevails and the viaducts are not removed until far in the future, when all of the transit improvements you identify are in place.
