An essential part of a balanced transportation system
In our automobile culture, transit gets little respect, but it's a vital part of a healthy, sustainable city. In Northeast Ohio, cities haven't come close to realizing the promise of transit — especially at a time of rising gasoline costs when people need affordable transportation choices.
This section will tell the story of the region's transit challenges. What would you like to see?

Conrail track
curatorius Says:Well, that Shaker-Coventry circulator leg doesn't appear to be very highly used and I worry about its long-term prospects. I think there's a large demographic of people who commute between Shaker Heights and University Circle that could best be tapped by a one-seat, or at least a two-seat but all-rail, transit connection. Keep in mind, of course, that I don't have any information that suggests that Conrail is anywhere near giving up this track. But here is the map of where the track is - this map is pretty much centered on the midpoint of the section I'm talking about.
