Chula Vista deserves better!
Key transit stops in Chula Vista are dangerous and lack dignity.
Right now, stops on busy streets like Plaza Bonita Rd and Otay Lakes Rd put transit riders AND drivers in danger. No dedicated sidewalk means:
Drivers have to watch out for pedestrians in the road
In bad weather, mud and water force transit riders out onto the road in low-visibility conditions
Transit riders and
car drivers deserve
to get where they are going, safely!
Other key transit stops like Millenia Station and East H St have broken screen displays, making it difficult to get vital real-time transit information and forces riders to stand and wait in difficult weather conditions. This matters because:
Real-time transit information provided by screen displays helps riders make decisions and plan their commute
Riders feel more confident and safe with important information about their commute
Bus shelters provide relief from harsh weather conditions and increase visibility of riders to cars and buses
Improvements to these transit stops help Chula Vista riders get to work!
How you can help
Are you a Chula Vista resident?
✍️Tell Mayor McCann to improve the bus stops!
What are we asking?
With support from the community, we are asking Mayor McCann to make the necessary improvements for these important transit stops by sending him an email.
Why ask Mayor McCann?
Mayor McCann is an MTS board representative for Chula Vista, and can directly address and influence the requested improvements.
The bottom line
People who take public transit make streets safer and less congested, have more disposable income to spend on local businesses, and help reduce overall emissions, improving air quality.
And, we already pay taxes that can be used to cover these improvements!
Sending emails to Mayor McCann will make it clear to him that his constituents need these improvements.
What happens next?
Getting public support for these improvements give us a chance to be heard!
