Urban Ring, explained (sort of): Thanks to Brighton reader for sending
this link (and
this map) about the proposed Urban Ring transit system for the city. Very interesting. Some of my
questions have been answered. ... Now: How about a Metro Ring, i.e. a rail system that runs along 128 or 495? They once said building Route128 was impossible, not to mention a farce. “The Road to Nowhere,” as they once described Route 128 while it was being constructed. We now know better. A rail system mimicking 128 or 495 would be just as logical and popular.
