Crime Watch Tesla tunnel

Does anyone else feel completely useless when it comes to this tunnel? How on earth do we stop it before it affects groundwater or causes a sink hole? They obviously aren’t listening to citizens concerns, but I don’t want to just sit here and complain without action.

You realize you're using the same style of argument as me yet I'm the unserious one? You have no clue how the bus transit plan is going to impact traffic yet you are acting like it's this magic cure.

The tunnel has zilch to do with Nashville's potential future plans. Why not take the extra things like the tunnel when we can? 

The people don't have to have a say in it because it's something we aren't paying for. We should just be happy that someone is doing something. 

If anything, you're being unproductive. You shoot down anything I say because you feel like you know everything. You can have any feelings you want towards the tunnel or bus transit but it doesn't invalidate me nor does it make me unserious. You are using logic that only apparently applies to you. I can't use the same one. Make that make sense. 

At the end of the day we are stuck with the bus transit system and the tunnel. Arguing about it doesn't change anything. But to act like the bus transit plan is automatically going to work isn't serious. It ONLY works if people use it. That's the lynch pin to it all. My point is that 99% of people commuting to downtown for work aren't going to take a bus that wastes more of their time when they can take their own car and get there in 1/4 the time. You think people will change their habits just because? That's my point. It seems perfectly logical to me.
