Letter: Provide funds for mass transit
Tuesday, Feb. 18, 2003 | 9:11 a.m.
I would love to ride the bus. No more fighting my way through traffic to get to work. Unfortunately the bus does not run often enough or at the right time in my neighborhood. I am sure this is the same in many areas.
As most Las Vegans know, increasing the capacity of roads and highways offers little relief and is short lived. Question 10 was passed by voters in the last election to fund highway construction and to fund mass transit. Question 10 is now in the hands of our Legislature, which must give it its OK.
Let us encourage legislators to get the funds out there to increase the capacity of mass transit in Clark County. Does cleaner air and an easier commute sound good to you?
