Do you have a neighbor or coworker who’s been saying: “One
of these days I’m going to try SunRail”?
Well tell them to stop yapping, and actually get on board.
This Thursday is National Dump the Pump Day, a fitting occasion to leave
the car in the garage and to try out some transportation alternatives for a
change.
We still have a very long way to go when it comes to
alternative modes of transportation in Central Florida. But thanks to SunRail
we now have more choices than ever – new bike lanes, vanpools in addition to
Lynx and Votran buses.
Considering the congestion and construction on that linear
parking lot called Interstate 4, now is a great time to check out mass transit.
The public bus systems and SunRail leave a lot to be
desired in terms of frequency and connectivity, but they’ll never get better
unless more of us start using them and demand more service.
Thursday is a great time to start by dumping the pump.
See you on The Rail.
