The Public Policy Forum has released a report about the lack of bus service to suburban job centers, how to fix this problem and the challenges that are holding us back.
The report focused on three potential routes that would connect Milwaukee to suburban job hubs.
- 10X (Brookfield Square to UWM via Downtown)
- 80X (Woodcreek/Puetz to MATC Mequon)
- 351 (108th/Cleveland to Westridge Business Park in New Berlin)
The report also outlined many of the challenges facing transit advocates and government officials who want to connect Milwaukee with jobs. Among the largest concerns was that of funding.
We encourage anyone who wants to find out more to go ahead and read the report. It is packed with information, but is still a very easy read.
