Take Action
The Tri-State Transportation Campaign needs your voice! Advocacy works when many people express their opinions to our elected officials. Together we can help tackle key issues related to public transportation and the environment – issues that make this region a better place for generations to come.
Help Pass Complete Streets Legislation! (NY)Complete Streets legislation would require that most roads in New York be designed so they are safer for pedestrians, cyclists, transit riders, and drivers. The bill has overwhelmingly passed the New York State Senate, but is stuck in the Assembly. With legislators set to return to Albany for what could be the last time in 2010, advocates are working around the clock to win a complete streets bill. Support this bill here! |

Ask Governor Christie For a Fare Deal (NJ)New Jersey Transit riders were hit by a 10-25% fare increase and statewide service cuts on May 1. These will have a devastating impact on riders and on New Jersey's economy, environment, and quality of life. Tri-State has called on Governor Chris Christie to promise not to raise fares or cut service again for the rest of his term. |

Stop New Jersey's Wasteful Road Widenings!New Jersey is planning to spend $3.6 billion to widen the NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway. These projects won't solve congestion and will harm the environment -- and those billions of dollars could be better spent on fixing existing roads and investing in transit. Tell your elected officials that this isn't a smart plan by sending them a letter here! |
