We need more connectivity and integration of say buses to the ION system. A better east/west and north/south system if we ever wish to reduce reliance on cars as seniors for example stop driving or just as population grows. Constant emphasis on reliability and efficiency. More smaller buses why run huge buses when they aren’t full? Allow unlimited one directional transfers with longer limits. Safe sidewalks to stops * Protected cycling connections * Secure bicycle parking * Better lighting * Accessible bus stops * Weather protection * Safe pedestrian crossing Going to stops

Integration, density and reliability. Parts of the system should connect and synchronize the volume of ridership may follow the establishment of a route and the service must be dependable…run on time carrying capacity and safety

Please name one specific street, corridor, or project where you would prioritize these changes.candidate's own words

Lincoln heights where saint Columbus church has been removed with recent road construction so has a cross walk. With whatever new construction goes in at the church site and given the lack of parking g and volume of pedestrians and vehicular traffic it is creating a perfect storm for accidents involving students either walking or on scooters and bikes. The intersection leading up to the school will become a potential danger zone. Mediation is required to study the future of this area for safety
