FREE Info Session! Transit Options: What’s Our Return on Investment?
This was forwarded to me. Looks great, I encourage you to attend if you have questions around the financial implications of investing or not investing in transit.
Local organizations invite you to a FREE discussion to learn more about critical transit and economic issues.
Wisconsin has an historic opportunity to modernize our transit systems. Decisions made this year at the local, state and federal level will impact our state’s economy for decades to come. With these new opportunities come key decisions that will affect our economy and our future.
Expanding Transit Options: What’s the return on our investment?
Delve into options including a Regional Transit Authority, High Speed Rail, KRM Commuter Rail and local bus!
