Fix the MARC Growth and Investment Plan


Fix the MARC Growth and Investment Plan
The Issue
The demand for quality transit is growing locally and nationally. Commuter Rail services like MARC and VRE are enjoying ridership growth every year. The MARC Growth and Investment Plan of 2013 is in some ways worse than the 2007 version in that aspirational goals such as run-through service, all-day, two-way service and weekend service on the Brunswick and Camden lines were deleted. Rather than rubber stamp a weakened plan, the Transportation Planning Board needs to restore these aspirational goals.
