As we move forward, their budget will only become bleaker. People will not continue being able to afford to live in a city that is 15 miles or more away from work, etc if that commute involves a vehicle that uses gasoline.

I don't think we should use light rail to go to the NC line. Instead, perhaps a commuter rail would work better. Light rail would require electrical lines.

I do like either connecting with Norfolks Line at Harbour Park or at the NSU station they are both good half-way points. The only thing about these is that they do not include Greenbrier mall which I feel is necessary. Also I never even thought about going all the way to the NC border, this I feel would be necessary too. I agree that none of these would fit the Chesapeake of today.
