This from Transportation For America, along with a blog post covering the irony of Rep. Oberstar being forced to miss a press conference on innovative transit solutions because he was stuck in traffic. Said Oberstar:
Reinventing Transit makes the case that reinventing the transportation bill to fund transit innovations in Minnesota and nationwide will deliver new jobs, new connections to jobs and economic development for communities of all sizes. Given our economic and environmental challenges, ‘business as usual’ transportation investments are not good enough. Reinventing Transit sets the standard for transit investments in the upcoming transportation bill to fuel America’s economic recovery.
