[Vision2020] Traffic in Moscow

I recall a while back someone complaining of the up to 5 minute wait at
some of our major intersections during Moscow's rush "hour" (is there a
term for less than an hour but more than a minute?).  Then there is the
brilliant idea of eliminating half the crosswalks in town, and John
Dickenson's query as to which half of the crosswalk we are to eliminate.
Then, of course, there's always the concern for "urban sprawl" and the
push for "smart growth" (as long as it's not in the pusher's
neighborhood).

All I have to say is arrive in Seattle at 5 pm on a Friday.  Then come
complain about Moscow's traffic.
