I think it is possible to look at transportation issues as a whole.

For example, I support freeway gap closure (to some degree), I support
HOV lanes where transit can also use them, I support integrated
freeway/LRT design, and I support park-and-ride lots at rail stations.

I support other multi-modal solutions, but those are examples.

(What I *don't* support is using rail corridors for busways.)
