Action Expired
Asheville city staff recently announced their recommendations for what City Council should fund in the upcoming city budget.
While the Asheville Regional Transit Coalition is excited that they’re recommending more frequent and extensive service throughout the city – bundled together as the “green” and “purple” route improvements – they have not recommended funding for a bundle of “yellow” route improvements that would serve the historically disenfranchised communities of Bartlett Arms, Livingston and South French Broad.
And while the exact number is unclear, we know it wouldn’t cost much more to make sure these yellow routes get funding in the budget.
Together, we can make sure these historically disenfranchised communities aren’t left behind as the city funds improvements for public transit. Take the action to call on City Council to include funding for the yellow route improvements in this year’s budget!
