The Sierra Club is desperately looking for nominations for the
best/worst transportation projects in WV. Submissions must be in
before the end of this Friday.
History: 10 years ago the Sierra Club produced this map at http://www.sierraclub.org/sprawl/report02/images/sprawlmap2.pdf
that received lots of media attention. However, there were no
transportation projects identified for WV.
The Club recently sent these specifications to me:
We are planning on highlighting a broad range of
transportation projects, from small pedestrian projects done with
community donations to multi-billion dollar projects building mega
highways. We are primarily focused on projects in their planning
or constructions phases, the projects of the future, but we are
also considering some recently completed projects.
Here's a list of project types to give you a better idea:
* Highway Construction and De-construction
* Complete Streets and Safe Routes to School projects
* Transit- Rail, bus, streetcar- you name it!
* Bridges
* Transit-oriented development and Smart Growth
* Repair on existing infrastructure
Are there any projects that come to mind?
If so, please fill out this form at http://action.sierraclub.org/site/PageNavigator/survey_NAT_GreenTransportation_1.html
for the project you have identified. Thank-you!
