Ok folks...here's your opportunity to weigh in on potential future transportation investments for the region....just follow the link and fill out your bracket....just like March Madness!

The results will be taken into consideration when developing generalized project priorities for the Jacksonville area's 2035 Long Range Transportation Plan.

Done.  My final four selections ended up being the same.

RAIL + RAIL + RAIL + RAIL = Regional Rail/LRT/Streetcar

Completed, but not without a lot of thought.  A few of the brackets required some tough decisions.  I would love to have many things.  My final four (with careful planning) came down to Regional Commuter Rail, Urban rail-streetcar, expanded sidewalks/trails and HOT lanes.  I think all would help Jacksonville a great deal.  Commuter rail won, of course, but not by much.  Urban rail-streetcar tried to make a comeback. ;D

... and if it hadn't been for that questionable traveling call with 11.2 seconds remaining, might have pulled it out!  :D

Just to provide some background on the game....

1. it was designed to capture general priorities, not specific projects
2. each of the four brackets includes the same 16 options
3. first round matchups are not repeated in the bracket, but may repeat in subsequent rounds
4. as such, the game ends at the fnal four....otherwise a priority could end up playing itself

Also, feel free to pass the link on to your family and friends
