My opposition is based on five factors: (1) This project is totally unneccessary and a waste of tax payers money. A parallel 8 lane highway is only a few blocks east of the proposed construction. (2) It representa a dangerous intrusion on the delicate environmental balance of the Aqua Hedionda Lagoon. (3) It will eliminate most of the current parking at the beach, making beach access much more difficult. (4) Introduction of a four lane highway into the beach area and Carlsbad Boulevard residential area will endanger children and increase noise pollution. (5) The road is currently subject to erosion and closing during winter storms. Oceanographers at Scripps have forecast increased severity of these storms during the next decade. If necessary the bridge should be repaired without widening the highway. A better option would be to close the bridge and turn the present road into a pedestrian mall, increased parking and more beach access. Very truly yours, Frederick W. Dow
