As cities and metropolitan areas grow, they increase their needs for a variety of infrastructure, including multiple transportation options. Axios ran a story this summer about multimodal infrastructure for the Research Triangle area in North Carolina. and the federal funding recently provided for it. Has your community or region been developing long-term plans to provide the transportation infrastructure it will require for a sustainable future? Transit options are usually only supported after great effort. While perusing through other stories on transportation, I also found one on the desire to restart a Southern rail line from Mobile to New Orleans. Hurricane Katrina took out that link and politics and other obstacles have interfered with a revived Amtrak line between those two points. Are there other possibilities for rail service which would connect those cities, such as more inland routes with spokes reaching out to coastal cities? #transportation #infrastructure #regionalexpansion #urbangrowth #transit #rail #passengerrail #transportationgrid https://lnkd.in/eczrxM-X
