21st Downtown Development Forum
welcome to a discussion on
TRANSPORTATION
Transportation is the center of the world! It is the glue of our daily lives. When it goes well, we don't see it. When it goes wrong, it negatively colors our day, makes us feel angry, curtails our possibilities.
……………Robin Chase, CEO Zipcar

I said that if an alien came to visit, I'd be embarrassed to tell them that we fight wars to pull fossil fuels out of the ground to run our transportation. They'd be like, “What?!?!?!”
........Neil deGrasse Tyson, Science Communicator
What if you didn’t need to own a car?
What if transportation was integral with
land use planning?
What if you could create more sustainable transportation
By changing our habits
What if rail line infrastructure was already in place
Would you demand it be used?
The world is changing as never before
And so are innovative transportation options
We must lead the transportation discussion
This is our chance to change transportation strategy
This is our chance to redefine our role as leaders
This is our chance to shape a relevant future
We can and we will make a difference
If you had the power to decide on the choices
WHAT WOULD YOU DO ?
