Rails to Prosperity:
It means making travel to a city’s jobs, entertainment, and lodging a safe convenient trip. It will make living in Peoria and working in Chicago more convenient than doing the same from Downers Grove.
All up to engineers and American Innovation
The quality of life our region offers is more than increased economic opportunity. It is sensible communities. It is our region’s family friendly living environments. Our region is one of agriculture, able to provide healthy food choices. Our region is one where our children have great educational and developmental opportunities in a clean and healthy environment. An integrated transportation system will help build Peoria and the surrounding communities. For those not ready to seek the more sedate family friendly lifestyle, then a link to the Peoria Downtown will boost urban development. Once called yuppies, (these pyuppies?) will reinvigorate Peoria. Peoria’s young urban professionals would make the riverfront an exciting place to live, even if working far away from the Peoria Downtown. The improved economy will allow local governments to continue to plan and expand healthy, less stressful, culturally rich communities. Have you fought the traffic in our suburbs to simply buy milk? People are seeking the lifestyles our area offers. An integrated transportation system designed and built by our own people is a project for our entire region. Who wouldn’t be in favor of doing that? It just takes the commitment and confidence to believe in a better future, while putting our abilities to work.
