The featured speaker at ProRail's next public meeting -- on July 10 -- will be Ethan Johnson, a planner in WisDOT's Bureau of Planning. He will bring us "up to speed" in three areas of state rail planning that Saturday morning. The program starts at 9:30 a.m. at the Middleton Public Library, 7426 Hubbard Ave. Johnson, who works in the Intercity Planning Section of the Bureau, will summarize the recently- issued "Rail Issues and Opportunities Report." Copies of the report will be available at the meeting and also can be found on the state agency's Web site here. You also can read ProRail's own summary of the report at this Web site by clicking here. He also will discuss the latest developments in the Midwest Regional Rail Initiative (MRRI) and Connections 2030, including the next steps his agency is taking as it develops a vision for multimodal transportation in Wisconsin. There also will be opportunity for questions and discussion. BREAKFAST The meeting will be preceded by an optional breakfast at 8:00 a.m. at the Bavaria Family Restaurant one block north at 7457 Elmwood Ave. To reserve a space at breakfast, please e-mail prorail@hotmail.com with “breakfast” in the subject line by 6 p.m. Friday, July 9, or call Bob Lenz at 608/849-4569 and leave a message. |
