National Day of Advocacy Focuses on Transportation Infrastructure Funding
(firmenpresse) - DENVER, CO -- (Marketwired) -- 04/02/15 -- The American Public Transportation Association (APTA) is making plans for a nationwide on Thursday, April 9, and is proud to be among a broad coalition of partners that will participate in events around the country.
The Stand Up 4 Transportation Day event is an opportunity to call attention to the importance of providing sustainable federal investment in our country''s transportation infrastructure and the need for a long-term surface transportation bill. The current federal transportation legislation, known as MAP-21, expires on May31, 2015.
Through their national leadership along with many industry partners, APTA is encouraging local organizations and advocates who support public transportation and highway investment to participate in the Stand Up 4 Transportation Day events, which are being held while Congress is on recess. To date, more than 90 events have been organized in communities across the country. Participating organizations are undertaking many different events such as conducting press and social media activities, while calling on the need for greater federal transportation infrastructure investment.
"Stand Up for Transportation Day is a single day when all transportation organizations and their coalition partners unite in common purpose with a unified message," said APTA Chair Phillip Washington, who serves as general manager and chief executive officer of Denver''s Regional Transportation District. "It''s time to set aside partisanship and once again act in the best interest of our country to repair, strengthen and build transportation infrastructure."
