Transportation Commission Hearing On LPA

This meeting has been postponed. When the date is reset, we will add that information to the blog.

Berkeley Transportation Commission confirmed yesterday that it will hold a public hearing at its meeting of October 29 on Berkeley's Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) for AC Transit's BRT proposal.

The Commission meets at the North Berkeley Senior Center at 7 PM.

We expect the opposition will be out for this hearing, and we urge all supporters of BRT to attend.
