Greenbelt Alliance In the News
September 18 , 2008 A 'healthy choice' for Marin Letter to the Editor Nathan Johnson, Field RepresentativeI'm thrilled that so many commuters are choosing to ride the Larkspur ferry, but disappointed that the IJ's story overlooked one simple remedy to the parking shortage ("Ferry popularity brings problems," Sept. 15). The solution is within sight: It's called the SMART train. By voting yes on Measure Q, commuters will have two choices. They can ride the train, and walk to the ferry, gleefully passing all those cars circling for spots. Or they can ride their bicycles along the pathway right to the ferry terminal. Here's a great idea: Instead of spending $20 million for a last-century parking garage, let's invest in lockers, secure bike racks, and a pedestrian bridge to the ferry. Driving solo is passe. The new way to commute is riding together, walking and biking. It's the healthy choice for people and the planet, too. ### |
