TransForm Has Big Plans for 2010
Here are five things we are doing in 2010:
- Coordinating the effort in California to win tens of billions of federal dollars for public transportation, walking, and biking options.
- Having California set tough targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions through better land use and transportation options.
- Getting state funding for public transportation restored.
- Working to make it possible for every child in the Bay Area to walk and bike safely to school.
- Building a powerful movement of people demanding that transportation and land use support more choices and less emissions.
With your help, 2010 can be the year we fundamentally change how the Bay Area and California grow and how people get around.
We can make world-class public transportation and walkable communities the norm - not the exception - across the state!
Everything is lining up for this fundamental change to happen. A huge new federal transportation bill will likely be passed. Every region in California will be assigned an emissions target that they'll then have to figure out what kinds of land use and transportation changes need to happen to meet that target. And the Bay Area is poised to be a regional model in fighting climate change and winning a better quality of life for all.
Your support for TransForm is unique and vital. You give the kind of flexible funds we need to be able to lobby in Sacramento, start innovative programs, and be nimble when battles like the Oakland Airport Connector project come up.
