The Line: Will the Albuquerque Rapid Transit Proposal Move Forward?

February 12, 2016 – The proposed Albuquerque Rapid Transit system has been a fierce topic of debate for months. This week, supporters and opponents discussed ART on the KUNM Call in Show – ABQ Public Transportation And The Rapid Transit Plan

We also learned this week that the ART project was included in President Obama’s budget, which would send 69 million dollars in funding to the city if approved by Congress.

Host Gene Grant and this week’s Line opinion panelists debate the ART proposal and discuss why debate about the system might be more than just buses.
