Berkeley BRT (Bus Rapid Transit)
I attended the neighborhood comment meeting with the City and Neighborhood activists last week about the "neighborhood preferred alternative," for AC Transit's proposed Rapid Trasit system.
The service sounds incredible and because I am a "Green" I support ways to get more ridership and better access to transit. The problem is how to accomodate a new system in a town the is already full to the brim, with busses, cars, bicycles, and pedestrians (in no particular order.)
This conversation has been going on far a decade, but the process appears to be in imminent danger of moving forward. If you are a stakeholder and have thought, I recommend that you jump in to the conversation. Arm yourself with ammunition at the website.
