Missoula County supports HB 545: Establish public transportation commission to study passenger transportation, in House Transportation today. Thank you, Representative Olsen, for sponsoring this bill.
HB 545 creates opportunities to address equity, access and economic development issues facing our state. Establishing a commission to examine, explore and address these issues makes sense. As Montana’s second most populated county, Missoula County has a keen interest in not only examining new models for re-establishing passenger rail service to southern Montana, which we’ve been without for nearly 40 years, but also examining how our various modes of existing and emerging public transportation throughout the region can better serve residents and visitors alike.
