Stay in touch as we roll out more public awareness and start organizing. Look forward to news on events, and let us know how you feel and how you'll be impacted if this goes through. We are collecting your stories of impact because there are SO MANY! You can also send us selfies, tik toks, and any testimonial format you like for inclusion into our upcoming Supporter Gallery & YouTube Channel. More information to come!

5. Tell Your Friends and Neighbors:

Tell them to go to our website: www.NoRushLine.com or our Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NoRushLine for details, and a link to the petition. It seems almost NOBODY wants this bus line. It also seems like a lot of people just don't know about it. (Perhaps by design?) To convert the Bruce Vento Trail to a 100 ft wide "Bus Guideway" instead of using existing streets and bridges should get anyone's blood boiling! 80+ buses a day, running down the Trail, running down 61, our main street, becoming a funnel for crime and traffic congestion. We say no way. Let's take action!
