Michigan Policy Summit-Michigan Transit

Posted in Uncategorized by laurieslade on May 16, 2009

Why bother?: Cost. Stress. Access (physically challenged). Environment. Urban renewal. Econonic stimulus.

Higher density along transit routes can leave larger open, greenĀ areas. Larger low density areas.

What do we need? Rail. Connecters. Paratransit.

What’s happening here? Regional Transit plan (tri-county)

How do we make it Happen? (And keep it going) Need to get the funding and keep it coming so that we don’t get a partial solution that stops. Keep the pressure on the elected officials to keep it moving forward.
