Read the Tonowing paragraph (1) The second reason that you should support this light-rail project is
that it will help to connect our surrounding communities to our vibrant
city center. (2) Richville boasts world-class museums, restaurants,
parks, and performing-art venues, but few in the suburbs get to
experience them because the highways leading to the cities are such a
gridlocked mess. (3) One recent study discovered that any car
commuter further than 15 miles from the city can expect an hour drive
minimum. (4) A number of critics have argued that the new rail tracks
and traffic will cause too much disturbance to the existing
communities and the city itself. (5) The light-rail will be built upon
preexisting, abandoned freight lines and will be whisper-quiet, making
any impact practically nonexistent. (6) In sum, this project will disturb
next to nothing but offer everything.
