Nogales Closed for 2 Years?

I am surprised that Nogales is going to be closed for 24 months for the underpass to be created!

http://www.theaceproject.org/nogalessouth.htm

The Alameda Corridor is where underpasses and overpasses are put in to allow trains to go from the Ports of LA without delaying traffic. The project has improved the traffic a huge amount in Rowland Heights. My business used to be located near the under construction underpass on Brea Canyon, I remember the construction on Nogales at Valley, and now the underpass at Nogales and Gale is being worked on.

Personal opinion, this entire project has been done piecemeal, and because of that a lot of money has been wasted. It would have been smarter to just dig and place the entire route when possible underground, as was done in Reno. Instead some areas the railroad gets raised for a street level grade, other areas the street goes over on an overpass (Azusa), and other areas their is an underpass.

Driving in Rowland Heights

It seems everyday, driving around Rowland Heights, I almost have a car accident each day.

Some recent traffic issues I have seen:
  1. Person making left turn, and turned wide on entrance / exit to McDonalds. I was making a right turn.
  2. Running red lights. I can understand 1 or 2 cars, but 3 or 4?
  3. Making a left turn on a street, and cutting it close. I go very slow on residential streets near corners to avoiding a head on collision.
  4. Tail gating on the 60 freeway
  5. Weaving in and out of traffic on Colima.
  6. Not moving over to the right, when a Fire Truck has the siren on. Only when the fire truck gets behind a vehicle, and uses their horn, does the vehicle move over to the right.
