High Speed Rail More Attractive than Four Lane Highways

As Green Party Governor of Ohio, I would advocate smaller high speed rail plans for Ohio than Ted Strickland's monsterous 3-C project. By doing smaller projects such as a Cleveland-Youngstown-Pittsburgh and a Columbus-Pittsburgh model, we could test the benefits of high speed rail before committing to a huge cross-state project.

High Speed Rail would be more attractive than more highways because:

  1. Less use of land space.
  2. Cost of a mass rail transit system would cost ¼ of what it would be to build another 4-lane highway.
  3. Faster travel.
  4. Less maintenance costs (no orange barrels out every 6 months)
  5. Less cars on the road. Less pollution in the air.
