The Facts

If Prop H and the Regional Transit Measure fail, severe cuts to public transit could add 33 minutes westbound in the morning and 43 minutes eastbound in the evening to Bay Bridge congestion delays, a new analysis projects. The model assumes low-ridership rail stations close and riders switch to driving, Rachel Swan reports at the San Francisco Chronicle.

The Context

Just about every group across the political spectrum endorses both RTM's five-county sales tax and Prop H's Muni parcel tax.

Without new funding, BART's contingency plan calls for trains every 30 minutes starting January 2027, followed by potentially closing up to 15 stations in July.

The GrowSF Take

You don't have to ride transit to benefit from keeping it running. This broad coalition is right to make the case to drivers, too. Vote yes on Proposition RTM and Proposition H to keep trains and buses running.
