Citizens Must Demand Rail Line
Re “The Light-Rail Solution: Orange, Santa Ana Need to Get Aboard,” by Sarah L. Catz, Jan. 16:
This is right on target, a very positive and informative summary of the urgent need for transportation alternatives and the political obstacles encountered in Orange County.
The success for an Orange County rail system will have to be the result of a bipartisan political push, really bad traffic (which we already have) and the right combination of a road and rail package (which we also have).
However, we won’t get the bipartisan political support until the citizens of Orange County demand it, especially in Orange and Santa Ana.
Council members in those cities seem to be in control of the destinies of all citizens throughout the county.
