Welcome
Welcome to On the Way, Transit for Livable Communities’ monthly e-newsletter. This newsletter arrives monthly and gives you information about transit, walking, and bicycling in Minnesota and the United States, as well as upcoming events.
Transit
Transit for Livable Communities and its action network have been actively working for the interests of transit users at the state Legislature this session.

It will take a 2/3rds majority in both the House and Senate to override a veto - we are very close, so your legislators need to hear from you! Also, get up to speed on transit at the Legislature, learn about the status of the bus and rail projects in your area, and Take Action Today!
