Don't like gas taxes? Take the train!

Central Corridor light rail is a go

The Met Council OK'd a light-rail plan that includes a transit-pedestrian mall at the U, and possibly more stations in St. Paul. ... Many of the compromises on the Central Corridor have been made in St. Paul, where residents have been vocal in their desire for more stations on University Avenue. Some stops will be a mile apart. About a dozen citizens held signs calling for the additional stations during Wednesday's council meeting. One of them was Linda Winsor of University United, a coalition of neighborhood groups, who said that rail stations bring investment, and "these neighborhoods need it more than any other area."
