Red state attempts to tell city what to do / not do. This is the kind of delay tactics that is the current brand of #ClimateDenial. Helped by #CarBrain that says bus riders are undeserving.
" The bill targeted Indianapolis and could have scuttled over one hundred million dollars in federal funds. Specifically, the bill put a one year moratorium on dedicated lanes deemed essential for the Blue Line while a one year study could be conducted on their effectiveness."
But the delay tactic has been foiled, and now #Indianapolis is getting a third line in its bus rapid transit system. BRT means that buses get a dedicated lane (so they don't get stuck in car traffic). #CarBrain, which believes it owns the entire street, hates that.
"The Blue Line rapid transit system has been recommended to receive roughly $140 million in support from the federal government."
