Mass transportation can be a wonderful thing, but only if it is designed and implemented correctly. I support TRAIL NOW, an organization that is promoting using our existing rail corridor for a trail, without a train. The corridor is simply not suited for efficient rail transportation. It’s not correctly positioned geographically. The corridor could be used to build a pedestrian and bike trail that we can be proud of—a trail that our kids can enjoy, a trail designed and used by the disabled and our Senior citizens. A trail that connects our neighborhoods, not separates them. A world-class trail from Watsonville to Santa Cruz. I respectfully ask you to halt the passenger train idea. I respectfully ask you to build a trail. Now.
