This is definitely one of the races to watch in the Bay Area, especially as Oakland grapples with high unemployment rates. We need a leader who can help bring Oakland forward, not just as a “model city”, but as a modern city.

This post is cross-posted in the blog “Living in the O” as part of a two part series regarding Berkeley’s vote on BRT.

Jim: You can check out the 2nd of the posts that discusses the next steps for BRT http://oaklandliving.wordpress.com/2010/05/12/joel-ramos-car-enthusiasts-kill-brt-in-berkeley/

David: The issue of funding is a very valid point, as a BRT system cannot run if there is no money. However, your focus is on the immediate present. 1) The construction of BRT is largely taken care of and the funding already exists to complete it. 2) BRT is part of a long-term plan that we should be willing to discuss, which is what Berkeley seemed to not want to do by voting against studying full-build. Further, BRT would not come online for several years when hopefully this economic environment has improved and AC Transit is able to restore services. But even in a downturn, BRT represents their most heavily used corridor that would likely not be cut, especially with the projected heavy ridership taking advantage of the speed and reliability.
