I think the racetrack has been a great outlet for folks who do want to race in a safe manner, rather than on the freeways.
coming debris mean storm today until
Just because you don't have debris today doesn't necessarily mean you're not going to have debris coming down from upstream another day. We'll just keep double-checking until the storm hits.

care instead letting roads shape

area closed dark debris drivers figure figured lane run until worried
We're going to keep the right lane closed indefinitely for now until we can figure out what to do. This area is kind of dark at night, so we were worried that any drivers would run into the debris that comes down to the road, so we figured just close the right lane down as a precaution.

I don't think anyone questions the good intentions of the project. The issue brought up is who's going to foot the bill.

If we make the roadway higher it will be a dam. If we make it any lower the road will be washed out.
