The issue that has been gnawing at me concerns the use of an elevated Gandy as an evacuation route. Traffic on an elevated Gandy will compete with all other traffic entering the Crosstown. Unless there is a move to widen the Crosstown, traffic will back up on any elevated roadway and will NOT relieve traffic backed up on the existing Gandy bridge or the ground level Gandy Blvd.
Also, unless there is a move to widen the existing Gandy bridge and Gandy Blvd in Pinellas, afternoon westbound traffic on the elevated roadway will compete with traffic on Gandy entering the bridge, thereby backing up traffic on the elevated Gandy. Any elevated roadway will NOT alleviate traffic. Simple physics will tell you that it can’t.
