Megaphone Project Documents Red Line Trip
05 Jul 2009
When plans for Baltimore's Red Line were announced, many citizens were concerned about the impact the new light rail would have on their lives and communities. Especially residents of the west side neighborhoods that were devastated by the Road to Nowhere, which was built decades ago during less enlightened times.
"Baltimore's Red Line and Transit Around the Nation II" documents how far we have come, locally and nationally, in engaging the community in transportation planning. In September, 60 Baltimore residents traveled to Seattle, Portland, L.A. and Phoenix to learn the benefits and pitfalls of light rail projects built in other cities. Their mission: bring back best practices to strengthen Baltimore's Red Line.
"Baltimore's Red Line" was produced by Megaphone Project for the Central Maryland Transportation Alliance. The film was screened on July 8 at the Enoch Pratt Central Branch at 400 Cathedral Street in Baltimore.
