  • Transportation Issues Facing Rural Communities — and Make Fewer Stops in Fewer Places
    REALTORS® & Smart Growth on common ground WINTER 2013 transportation Funding Roads and Transit Buses, Streetcars and Bikes Rethinking Parking The Future of Transportation How we move around is undergoing a big shift. Travel by car has reached a saturation point, as evidenced by the leveling off of miles driven, and alternatives such as public transit and bicycles are attracting larger shares of the traveling public. One aspect of the gain in transit ridership is the greater patronage that buses are enjoying from “choice riders” — those who could drive their own cars if they wished. And transit, whether bus, rail or streetcar, is proving itself to be a catalyst for successful real estate development, as demand for living and working near transit is increasing. There also is a new recognition that how we design our streets, which are our major transportation facilities, plays a huge role in determining the character of neighborhoods. # !$ "# !"Y%"&% fuels tax, although the revenue from the current tax is not less welcoming for pedestrians; our article on “Road Diets” $ P & " "'" were attempts to cut off transit funding.
