TRANSIT: Bay Area to invest $292B in transit projects
Nov. 3, 2015
Bay Area plans to spend $292 billion on transit projects to achieve a car-limited future
Approximately $292 billion will be used for transit projects in the Bay Area over the next 25 years. The plans include rail, bus and commute routes for the public, which are all designed to give commuters alternatives to getting around the city so they can avoid driving.
San Francisco is aiming for a car-limited future and has already made a number of changes to the city including no-turn laws, bike lanes and lowered speed limits. BART will extend its reach further into Santa Clara County. In 2019, reserved bus lanes and the Central Subway running through the middle of downtown San Francisco will be implemented.
The projects will not only need funding dollars but also public support, which can only occur if the proposed transit projects turn out well over the next 25 years.
