Transportation Plan
- Planning of California High Speed Rail
- SCAG's implementation of SB 375
- Local support for Sierra Club's national Green
Cars, Fuels, and Transportation for the 21st Century campaign, especially:
Expanded transportation choices and increased reliance
on transportation alternatives: Reducing vehicle miles traveled
per person by increasing public transit use, fostering compact communities
with transportation choices (rail, bus, walking, biking), and by cutting
the number of car trips taken.
