JTA's Transit Initiatives

[stjr]

I wonder why there is no indication of future skyway extensions?

I hope its (1) because JTA is finally big enough to admit its mistake for the good of the community and (2) they realize they have far better solutions than the $ky-high-way.

If we want to be first class, we need to focus and invest in the BEST solutions in this town - not second and third class ones.

What is happening with the 'System Redesign'?  It is still on JTA's website:

As part of our smart growth plan for north San Marco (San Marco by Design), we talked about the benefits of a neighborhood shuttle that loops from Baptist Hospital to Miramar Shopping Center (about 8 miles round trip).  We are also discussing the benefit that would result from extending the Skyway south across the railroad tracks from Kings Avenue to Lasalle Street and on to Atlantic Boulevard.

All of these ideas play directly into JTA's 'System Redesign' plan, so I am curious to know where JTA is with that.
