MNPass Lanes will be changed to light rail in the future

Sunday, April 22nd, 2012

Below was sent to Minnesota’s  Representatives and Senators.

 

MNDOT would like you to believe:

There is nothing more important than creating toll roads to relieve congestion and
decrease drive times!

Nothing is further from the truth!

Adding a toll road to highway 35E between highway 694 and highway 94 is only to
continue subsidizing public transportation at the expense of expanding roads to
accommodate the majority of Minnesota Citizens who choose to use their automobiles.

AND

According to the National Bridge Inventory Database, Minnesota has 1,158 “structurally
deficient bridges” and 397 “functionally obsolete bridges”.  Who will be responsible for the
next 13 we lose because we are dumping our money into a transportation system that isn’t
needed or required?  ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT THIS CATASTROPHE!

VOTE NO to stop MNPass Lanes!!!!

VOTE YES to create/expand/repair Minnesota’s roads and fix Minnesota’s bridges!!!
