The notoriously hard left show Now is featuring a segment on NC transportation including a plea for more stimulus money for light rail. JLF transit expert and light rail critic Professor David Hartgen will be featured.
UNC-TV at 8 pm tonight.
Dave’s latest numbers on the Charlotte LYNX light rail system show that ridership continues to drop. The January total of 13,900 riders is down 10 percent in just one month and down 18 percent from the peak last July.
For more on the Charlotte light rail system, see Dave’s JLF report here. I wrote this N&O op-ed on the sure-to-fail light rail system planned for the Triangle.
