Romanelli, who helped kill Chicago's plan for bus rapid transit, is now trying to do the same thing with an Illinois Department of Transportation proposal to relocate a section of the Prairie Path.
If we're going to address the climate crisis and promote a more equitable transportation system, we need to pressure local officials to take bold action to improve transit.
It's good to see that local congressional reps understand that these unprecedented times call for a new state transportation paradigm, not just the inequitable, car-centric status quo. Let's hope IDOT gets the message.
