Story about the proposal that has already roused much controversy and discussion here. It includes a bit more of the history and context of the tunnel design, and notes that this is only an initial proposal for a project that isn't scheduled to start construction for another three years. (Or later, if they save the tunnel work until after the platform work is done.)
