Transportation Equity Summit
to
press release: Transportation is vital. It connects people to jobs, healthcare, the grocery store, school, houses of worship and more. For people who aren't able to drive, can't afford to drive or do not want to drive, getting from point A to point B can be expensive, burdensome - even impossible. On December 3, transit users, community advocates and allies from around Wisconsin will gather in Milwaukee to explore the impact of transportation on people in our state and how we can advocate for change.
This event is coordinated by 1000 Friends of Wisconsin, WISPIRG, Sierra Club-John Muir Chapter, Wisdom, Wisconsin Green Muslims.
