it's already approved. there's always traffic nightmares near any stadium close to game time
I think the question is, how will all that mall and housing complex affect traffic in the area regardless of any activity across the street.
How do the SF Giants do it ? how does any other Stadium do it ? Sounds more like people just want to complain over nothing
We are talking about Santa Clara approving a giant development in the middle of a highly congested area without the infrastructure to accommodate it, it is a little surprising and I think there will be major traffic headaches in that area on non-game days.
What the Giants do is have a stadium that is accessible by three different rail services, many bus lines and multiple ferry lines.
it's not a highly congested area as of yet
Giants have two Rail ways, no buses stop on the same streets as the stadium and there is only one Ferry stop that only takes 1 boat at a time with 25 mins between new boats
9ers have two Rail ways and buses that run on the same streets as the stadium and can handle 70K+ compared to 34K of the giants
