MinnPost: Minneapolis Responds to Equity Commitments Coalitions’s Demands
Minneapolis will continue to plan and seek money for streetcar lines and bus rapid transit routes aimed at better connecting existing and future transit projects with areas of high poverty and high numbers of transit users. The city will also keep pushing the Metropolitan Council and the state to fund transit improvements that will help the regional system better serve poor and minority residents. Those were among some of the promises recently announced by the city council in response to requests from the Equity Commitments Coalition for Metro-wide Transportation.
