Transportation/Bicycles

Monday 3/22 4-6pm… Let’s Show Up Rochester!

The City has partnered with C&S Companies to analyze and make recommendations to enhance commuting, circulation, and parking in Downtown Rochester. Among the potential enhancements under consideration is a circulator transit service—a.k.a shuttle buses or streetcars. Listen carefully Rochester…

The potential rewards and benefits of a circulator are enormous. Giving people the ability to move between points of interest without being tied to an automobile will make our region a more attractive location for businesses, residents, and visitors. According to the Center for Transportation Excellence a $10 million investment in public transportation typically results in a $30 million gain in sales for local businesses and more than 570 jobs are created.

Most people hop into their vehicles for destinations only six miles from their home. Imagine the environmental relief from greenhouse gas emissions and energy conservation if, instead, folks used alternative transportation modes. That’s the sort of thing we are working on at the Rochester Sierra Club.

July 19, 2008 ~ 10AM – 8PM

Bus drivers in Rochester have been working without solid contracts for the past three years and are organizing to stop this. They have been met with not only a refusal of contacts but also cut backs in their benefits, such as the length of break time.
They have asked us to demonstrate in solidarity with them in front of the downtown bus terminal on E. Main street from 11am until 1pm on Thursday July 3rd.
An injury to one is an injury to all.
