I was listening to KGOU (Oklahoma City/Norman NPR affiliate) this morning and they had a great segment on it regarding mass transit - rail in particular - and how activists, business leaders and urban planners are kicking the idea around.
I feel Oklahoma City really needs to invest in mass transit. Many comparable cities are doing it from Albuquerque to Richmond. Hearing one of the segment's speakers talk about folks crossing Northwest Expressway in wheelchairs, just to get to the store, was heartbreaking. A city of our size should be seriously looking at our options and finding ways to not be so dependable on automobiles.
