Speak to the Maine Turnpike Authority!

This coming week, the Maine Turnpike Authority is having the third of four public hearings on the proposed 10-year plan for the turnpike. We'd like to see you there to thank them for delaying the turnpike widening in Southern Maine for another five years! 

However... widening is still in their future plans. Right now, it is even more important to urge them to use these five years to explore more cost effective ways to deal with and prevent potential traffic growth in the future.

Join us at one of the meetings, and stand for transportation! (Or walk! Or bike! Or take the bus!)

WHAT: The Maine Turnpike Authority Public Hearing
WHEN: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 - 6:30 pm
WHERE: MTA Headquarters, 2360 Congress Street, PORTLAND

WHAT: The Maine Turnpike Authority Public Hearing
