The Vineyard Gazette recently ran an online survey to solicit opinions about summer traffic. 2,200 residents and visitors responded. There weren't any surprises.
"The online survey, designed to gauge the impact of traffic on the island's quality of life, elicited a variety of reactions, but most agreed that surging summer traffic had negatively affected their enjoyment of Martha's Vineyard. As to what should be done, no clear consensus emerged."
For a hint of what's to come, the Steamship Authority continues to break traffic records and they're spending $80 million on more ferry slips and a new headquarters building in Woods Hole. And the Obamas just bought a home on Edgartown Great Pond for $15 million.
Jimmy Cagney said it best more than 40 years ago in a telegram to Senator Ted Kennedy.
