So UCSB, where I work, is planning to replace a perfectly functional gate with one more 'aesthetic'. A large traffic circle at the end of a 65mph stretch of freeway, plus an archway, to show off. Not a bad waste of $5.5m that could be spent on other projects around campus...or actually making wages on campus competitive.
But, on the positive side, they plan to start in time for Commencement...meaning that the major way off campus (and one of only 3 ways out) will be potentially off line for that event.
Joy!
