OPINION — The Tempe Bicycle Action Group Board of Directors is strongly in favor of the Tempe’s transit-tax increase. We ask voters to support this measure and vote yes. If Proposition 424 does not pass, planned bike, pedestrian and transit improvements will be halted for years.
The Rio-East Dobson streetcar extension into Mesa would be stopped. The Upstream Dam bike and pedestrian bridge over Tempe Town Lake near McClintock Drive would be stopped.
We need to keep the momentum of infrastructure work going in Tempe, not let it lapse.
