At today's Greater Washington Board of Trade Regional Policy Forum on Transportation, the Alliance asked three state transportation department heads and WMATA's General Manager, "What is the one thing that would make a great difference that you don't currently have funds for but would invest in today if the funds suddenly became available?"
Their responses:
District of Columbia-
"Improve the general state of repair of pavements, sidewalks and bike trails."
Terry Bellamy, Director Department of Transportation
District of Columbia Maryland -
"Build the Purple Line to relieve Beltway congestion."
Darrell Mobley, Acting Secretary of Transportation
Virginia -
"Improve north-south connectivity starting with the Bi-County Parkway."
Sean Connaughton, Secretary of Transportation
WMATA -
"Acquire the cars and power source necessary to provide 8-car trains throughout the system."
Richard Sarles, General Manager and Chief Executive Officer
