Please plan to attend and bring your friends and neighbors to the October 5 La Crosse Area Transportation Forum from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at the Southside Neighborhood Center, 1300 South 6th Street. This event is one of several around the state hosted by the Sierra Club to inform people about transportation funding issues and invite people to voice their concerns, priorities, hopes, and ideas.
For a more detailed explanation of transportation equity and why it's important, please see the Sierra Club's blog post, Community Forums on Wisconsin's Transportation System
Because we have other challenges unique to our area, including the ongoing issues with the DOT's Coulee Region Transportation Study, the forum in La Crosse will include information about current transportation options, input from the public about their ideas for improving transportation in the region, and more information about regional and state plans and initiatives.
As part of its study of the Wisconsin system, the Sierra Club is collecting Transit Stories from people who drive for, ride with or would like to ride with public transit. Please share your story and share the link so others can, too.
Please spread the word about this important event! A flyer will be available soon, but for now, please make sure people mark their calendars!
