Addressing Solano's Transportation Needs |

Solano County is faced with a once-in-a-generation opportunity to set better
transportation priorities. The Solano Transportation Authority (STA) is considering
increasing
the Solano County sales tax by one-half cent to pay for the County's transportation
needs over the next 30 years. Greenbelt Alliance is working to ensure the expenditure
plan for this tax does not exclusively support costly highway expansion projects
that promote sprawl, degrade air quality and cause more congestion.
Join us in advocating a transit-oriented transportation plan that reduces traffic
by providing transportation options besides the automobile. Visit the Solano
page of the Greenbelt Alliance webpage at www.greenbelt.org/regions/solanonapa/index.shtml to
view our Ten Point Congestion Relief Plan and use our sample letter to voice
your concerns to the
Solano Transportation Authority.
