Will you commit to opposing efforts to abandon or remove any part of our rail line during your term in office?
Kristen Brown:
"Yes, yeah, I will commit to working to prevent that. I think it's bad public policy to remove this vital transportation infrastructure..."
@zennonuc@ilike_mike I attended the December 14 Coastal Commission meeting. They aren't opposed to good projects, like rail or the Battery Energy Storage System in Moss Landing.
They will expedite applications for housing in the coastal zone but not for second homes or short term rentals. Yay!
In route to major #transit announcement on behalf of @CAgovernor! Super convenient way to go via @CapitolCorridor on @Amtrak. Teams hard at it already here 😁Txs to the DepSect’s Mark, Chad & Tamie for the work to get to today. @CalTransit
It's unacceptable that someone would have to climb under or around a standing train car to get to their destination.
Our department is working to improve rail grade crossings — to increase safety, reduce wait times, and eliminate blocked crossings. https://t.co/FVBvJVHtia
WATCH: The most amazing thing about this remarkable car commercial, is that it didn’t seem to realize, or didn’t care, how effectively it made the point that cars are a HUGE waste of space in cities. Award-winning 2002 ad for Saturn cars. HT @javiermalagon
@TrentSiggard@CoastConnectSCC Absolutely! TIGm streetcars and most other streetcars are configurable for any number of bikes and/or wheelchairs by reducing the number of seats. And, TIGm makes their streetcars in single, double, and triple car models. https://t.co/Us49Y7NapD
@CoastConnectSCC Probably the single most effective event in bringing awareness and support to the community about the ease of bringing clean light rail to service: The Coast Futura demonstration! #coastfutura#sccrtc
Excellent conversation today around the great range of benefits multi-use trails provide us all: GHG reduction & improved safety, climate, public health. Thanks @railstotrails for all your work supporting #active#transportation and contributing to enhancement of people’s lives.
@kristin796 About 200 feet of the wharf leading out to the SS Palo Alto was swept away, the ship was already broken up and is a bit more so after the storm.
