Patrick McIlheran's Wrong Turn On Traffic Data

Patrick McIlheran, the Journal Sentinel's in-house conservative columnist and blogger, says Milwaukee rates extremely high on one survey of easy commutes.

He uses the findings to buttress his argument that commuting by train is inefficient.

Isn't the best use of the data to suggest that with such relatively short commuting times, the state and regional planning commission are wrong to shove a fresh $6.5 billion into rebuilding and adding more lanes on the 127-mile regional freeway system?
