Transportation funding for Bicycle and Pedestrians is under attack again. There are claims that the money is needed for bridge projects instead... Same people trying to pull out the funding with another bad tactic. Bridge Funding is not at risk, and according to the DOT numbers money is actually already returned when not spent, or transferred to other road projects instead.
We need to stop fighting to build more roads for only cars. We Should be building a transportation system that works for everyone. It is tax money from everyone, and should serve everyone. Vehicles, Bicycles, Pedestrians, and Trains. We can move about this country safer by building Complete Streets for all.
Find out more and let your congress people know you support keeping funding for all:
