St. Louis officials can find millions of dollars for a sports stadium 
but cannot find funds to keep buses running.  While the rest of the 
world looks for ways to expand mass transit, cycling and walking, St. 
Louis becomes more car-dependent than ever.

 

City officials seem unconcerned with asthma from auto pollution, global 
warming, oil depletion and the lack of services for anyone without a 
car.  Join us for a discussion of building a truly viable transportation 
system that helps all the City get to where they need to go.
