1st its the gerrymandering, re-writing of maps & destroying evidence, now it seems Walker & assoc.s are creating a physical obstacle that prevents low income residents of Milw. from traveling west on Bluemound road for jobs, recreation etc. No plans for public transit in the works here. (It would almost be impossible for a person without a car to work west of the Zoo.)
It seems the Rupukes have an urban "ghetto" like mentality in sequestering residents mentally, physically and politically.

"Under the accelerated reconstruction sought by Gov. Scott Walker, work on the Zoo Interchange project would start in 2013 and finish in 2018...Developing a transit alternative to the freeway expansion is not likely to be part of the DOT plans, according to the new transportation secretary, a civil engineer who served as a Republican in the state Assembly from 2002 until his appointment earlier this year."

What do You All think is going on????

1. You are correct that this will be a barrier to Milwaukee residents accessing jobs ...

... all down Bluemound (where the jobs are). Intentional? Not outside the realm of possibility.

But even if it's not intentional, it's a major disservice to Milwaukee residents, and typical of our "I don't care about them" Governer (sic).
