Engaging the Region to Create a FASTER Bay Area
Congested
roadways, packed and infrequent transit, and projects that run over-time and
over-budget have become an unfortunate reality for the Bay Area. FASTER Bay
Area, which the Bay Area Council is leading in partnership with the Silicon
Valley Leadership Group and SPUR, is working to change this through a bold plan
to invest $100 billion over the next 40 years to ease traffic and improve the
Bay Area’s transit system. As part of the process, FASTER is hosting a series
of outreach forums across the region to provide stakeholders and the public the
opportunity to shape the plan, most recently holding two outreach events in San
Mateo County on October 29. In the coming weeks, FASTER will be in Solano County
to co-host an outreach forum with the Solano Economic Development Corporation
on November 19 (RSVP here). But that is not the
only opportunity to engage. We also want to hear from you about your priorities
for improving Bay Area transportation through the FASTER
Survey
or by emailing your thoughts to info@fasterbayarea.org.
