Runaway, hapzard development - which bring more roads, more traffic and pollution.-is not inevitable. One of the best ways to curb sprawl is through wise transportation planning and investments. By balancing funding between highways and public transportation choices, such as rail, buses, bike paths and sidewalks, we can:
- · Reduce air and water pollution
- · Reduce traffic congestion and gridlock
- · Promote energy conservation and resource efficiency
- · Protect open space, farmland and fish and wildlife habitat
- · Help downtown businesses thrive
