Mayoral candidates explain how they’d drive the sector of public transport

They basically came into an agreement on the necessity of more lanes that are designated for buses to proved speed and reliability. However, they differed on the thought of discounting fares in an attempt of making public transport become more affordable.

Most of the candidates mentioned that crime is a factor that is influencing the sector of public transport, just like it does on other sectors in Chicago.

9 out of the 15 candidates for mayor of Chicago took turns offering ideas of an advanced system of public transit in a forum that took place in Pilsen on Tuesday evening.

The ninety minute forum featured various proposals, some of which were greatly welcomed by audience in the Public Library of Chicago at Lozano Branch than others.
