Newsletter Tue, 15 Dec 2009 14:00:00 -0500 http://www.citizenstransit.org/Article91.html By Seth C Triggs As of 2009 in the United States (and North America), all non-new build light rail systems have expanded except for Metro Rail in Buffalo, New York. Some new build systems such as Seattle's Link Light Rail have already commenced expansion planning and/or construction. Indeed, a large portion of light rail expansion has occurred in the past five years. Due to the somewhat higher costs associated with reserved right-of-ways [see note 1], not as many heavy-rail (rapid transit) systems have expanded.

Newsletter Wed, 14 Jan 2009 18:50:44 -0500 http://www.citizenstransit.org/Article79.html We at the CRTC applaud NFTA Chairman Gregory Stamm for his forward-thinking and very timely support for Metro Rail expansion. In a recent letter printed in the Buffalo News, December 27, 2008, Stamm suggested that Federal stimulus monies could be used for Metro Rail expansion. Stamm writes, "That [balance after other infrastructure projects he supports] leaves $350 million, which is probably the exact amount it would take to build a network of surface light-rail or streetcars that could connect downtown Buffalo to the airport, the airport to UB and UB and downtown to Niagara Falls." Read more of the article at the Buffalo News.
