Mercy also paid for the independent traffic study, so your Question #1 is also answered Doc.

Mercy Vice President Rich Gruber says, as far as traffic goes, a city arranged independent study indicates no material changes to volume or flow.
Question #1: Who paid for this traffic study to be done? It would seem to me that Mercy Inc. should have little problem paying the tab for this since they seem to have a surplus of money at a time when taxpayers in Janesville do not.
Helicopters are also a concern for neighbors. Gruber says, based on the experience at Mercy Hospital and Trauma Center, a helicopter would only land once or twice a year, and generate little more noise than a semi traveling on I-90.
That brings me to question #2: When is the last time a semi traveling down I-90 landed in or near your backyard? Sorry but I live only a few blocks from I-90 and I don't hear semis traveling yet I can hear a helicopter taking off and landing at the current Mercy location across town when it flies over my area a couple miles away, sounds like Mr. Gruber may want to have someone qualified at Mercy check his hearing, since he works there maybe he could have this done at a lower cost even.
Another big issue is bio-medical waste. Gruber says it will not be incinerated on site.
Question #3 then would have to be: How safe is the air quality going to be with the toxins that would be released from said burning, and doesn't a lot of bio-medical waste have fumes when burned that make it necessary for those burning then wear masks?
And one final question (#4 for those keeping score) How does Mercy intend to have the new facility up and running weeks before the new Dean hospital when they haven't even begun to erect the building itself? I find it hard to imagine that Mercy will be able to get done what has taken years for Dean to complete just two exits down the road off I-90. Will crews be rushing to complete this and if so wouldn't there be any safety concerns by doing this? The safety of the people of Janesville in that area should not come into question for what is obviously a business move, whether Mr. Bay admits it or not, trying to open it's doors only weeks before Dean is just that.
I realize that this isn't the forum for questions and answers here, but I do believe that these are some questions that Mercy should have to legitimately address to those who's home values may be negatively affected to cause the real value and the cities grow even further apart.
