THE CITY OF ALBUQUERQUE IS MOVING FORWARD ON A NEW TYPE OF BUS SYSTEM ALONG CENTRAL AVENUE THAT IT’S CALLING “ALBUQUERQUE RAPID TRANSIT.” IF EVERYTHING WORKS OUT, MOST OF THE FUNDING…80-MILLION DOLLARS…WOULD COME FROM WASHINGTON.
THE ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL’S “ROAD WARRIOR,” COLUMNIST D’VAL WESTPHAL, SAYS SOME WONDER IF IT’S ALL WORTH IT. SHE SAYS IT’S A LOT OF MONEY AND THE CITY NEEDS TO THINK ABOUT THAT BEFORE IT STARTS BUILDING.
WESTPHAL WILL BE THE MODERATOR AT A FORUM THURSDAY EVENING WHERE THOSE FOR AND AGAINST A-R-T WILL SPEAK. IT BEGINS AT 6:00 AT THE UNM LAW SCHOOL.
