NIMBYs are always a thing, but based on my local knowledge, I think a deal could be arrived at. There’s enough room nobody would lose their house, and most of the land is owned by big farmers that see it as no more than a number on their balance sheet. I mean, there’s already a couple highways that are pretty straight.
I don’t know how unusual this situation is exactly, though.
the people that own the farmland might object
