Background
The city is debating whether to expand public transit, including additional bus routes and light rail connections. Supporters argue it would reduce traffic congestion, cut emissions, and provide better access for low-income residents. Opponents believe it would be costly and underutilized in suburban areas.
Options
Expand bus routes and light rail connections across the city
Focus exclusively on expanding bus routes in underserved areas
Maintain the current public transit system without expansion
Reduce the transit system to focus on areas with the highest ridership
