Workshops on MD 20-year transportation plan – none transit-accessible


"But the four “roundtable workshops” for the 2035 Maryland Transportation Plan [MTP] are not scheduled in locations convenient to any mass transit. None are located in Baltimore city in a location where they might conceivably be served by trains, buses, light rail or the subway and where many transit users, cyclists and pedestrians live."

B' Spokes: MTA handles mass transit in the Baltimore area. Is MDOT saying there is no long range plans for mass transit or they are just not interested in public comment from people who use a state transportation system?

[Note: Baltimore handles all state roads in it's jurisdiction so some &quot;exclusion&quot; is understandable but not 100% on all topics. Baltimore metro area needs more input into this plan!]

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
