Tulsans help create transportation vision
Participants get a chance "to play public works director."
By KEVIN CANFIELD World Staff Writer
The Tulsans who gathered Tuesday night to plan the city's transportation future were asked to consider one telling fact: Only about 1 percent of local commuters use public transportation.
The question for participants in PlaniTulsa's final workshop on the city's comprehensive plan update was whether that constitutes a positive or a negative for the city and what should be done about it.
"This is really when you get a chance to play public works director," Andrew Howard, a consultant working with the city on the update, told the nearly 100 participants who gathered at the Centennial Center at Central Park.
Most, it seemed, wanted more options.
