Streetcar Campaign sets dates for community events

Friday, August 04, 2006

The Madison Streetcar Campaign will be hosting a series of four "Let's Connect! Bringing Modern Transit to Madison" informational meetings in early September.

These meetings will provide a fun opportunity to learn more about:
- The Transport 2020 and Streetcar Feasibility Studies
- What streetcars are and how they operate
- How cities across the country are improving their quality of life and economic vitality with streetcars, and
- How you can get involved!

Meetings will be held in community meetings spaces along each of the three corridors under consideration in the Streetcar Study, as well as downtown Madison.

- South Side - Thursday, September 7th from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at the Catholic Multicultural Center at 1862 Beld Street
- East Side - Wednesday, September 13th from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at Hawthorne Library at 2707 East Washington Avenue
- Downtown - Thursday, September 14th from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at the Central Library at 201 West Mifflin Street
- West Side - Tuesday, September 19th from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at the WARF Building (UW Madison Campus) at 614 Walnut Street

At each meeting, the presentation will begin at 6:30 and last roughly one hour. If you can't make the one in your neighborhood, feel free to attend one of the others.

Snacks and drinks will be provided.

Sincerely,
Madison Streetcar Campaign
