I support rapid transit on the Cross Kirkland Corridor. GASP! Yes, I support it.

I support rapid transit on the Cross Kirkland Corridor. GASP! Yes, I support it.

Our city/region has an ever-increasing problem with traffic and with this problem comes more: pollution, health risks and change to our climate.

Our City Council is doing the right thing by providing more people the opportunity to leave their car at home and either walk, bike or use transit to get around in our city and our region.

The old rail line was purchased with this intent. I’d like to see people consider the greater good of all residents, not just the few who’s property values are benefitting from a nearby trail.

I plan to support the Council in their CKC efforts and give input such as choosing transit that is quieter and less polluting.

I’m ready to see this great corridor become even better.
