Ride RTA and take a stand against high gas pricesAn 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?

More a Forgotten Triangle loop

Marc Lefkowitz Says:

I see where the Conrail line runs, but it doesn't look like it connects Shaker Square to University Circle (am I not looking at the right line?). It looks more like a loop into the "Forgotten Triangle". Maybe someday it could be a rails-to-trails link or planned as part of the "Opportunity Corridor" (if NOACA wanted to show a commitment to multi-modal transportation). Do you know how many trains per day Conrail runs on that line?

Are you sure the Shaker Square to Coventry leg of the Circulator isn't performing well? As you know since we both ride it, the Coventry to University Circle leg seems to be well used.
