Letters to the Editor

Editor:

In the 40 years we've lived in Orinda, we've seen the traffic go from bad to worse to outrageous. Every morning and evening, Moraga Way is a parking lot. That said, I can only sit and wonder at the some of the major housing proposals that our landlocked neighbor Moraga is contemplating.

Every new development in Moraga impacts the traffic in Orinda and Lafayette (I'm guessing Moraga Road through Lafayette is a parking lot also).

I notice in the article in the current Weekly that the MCSP contains plans for 630 new housing units, plus space for office, retail, and entertainment. ... I wonder how many more cars that will add to Moraga Way and Moraga Road? Then there's the planned development on the hills between St. Marys and Rheem....

I wonder, is the effect on traffic in Orinda and Lafayette even remotely a consideration when these projects are discussed?

Lastly, at what point is enough, enough????
