Statement by Martin Lessard
It's time for us to make some smart social decisions in Hamilton, especially when it comes to transportation in the city. The bike share that is starting this year is a welcome addition to our transit strategy as is the LRT.
We need a cost effective, dependable,and safe way to move citizens around our beautiful city. The present system is unreliable, inefficient, and unwelcoming.
Hamilton has always been a car city. With large multi-lane streets to drive across the city and a small population with little to no real rush hour traffic (until recently.) When parking downtown became a nuisance, and limeridge mall was built, Hamiltonians abandoned our city's core for new developments and easier access. Our city centre is now finally gaining attraction again, and the LRT will help our downtown core, our city, and our region reach their potential.
