So grateful that @MattMahanSJ is advocating for SCC to get our fair share of transportation funds in SB 1031. "SCC needs a guarantee that our existing local revenue base will be safeguarded and an initial return to source of at least 90%."
Come to San Jose/South Bay. No need for your car… usa.streetsblog.org/2024/04/16/see…
What’s implied but not often recognized outside of Santa Clara County is there is strong, unified support in the South Bay for more public transit. That’s not always been so. We’re grateful to our MTC delegation for the advocacy. @MattMahanSJ @SupCindyChavez @margaretabekoga

Why do so many people die on San Jose roads? 13 people died so far this year. That’s more than double this time in 2023. In my latest story for @kron4news I spoke with the mayor and advocates about how we can try to fix this.
I had the opportunity to speak about safe streets in San Jose on @kron4news. We need safer street design. San Jose traffic deaths rise to 13 in 2024 youtu.be/Le7qIw7-o3M?si… via @YouTube
Santa Clara County & San Mateo County are wealthy counties, but our local transit riders are not. 73% of VTA riders & 77% of SamTrans riders make less than 50k/year. Both agencies have also almost fully recovered ridership, so there's demand for more service & we need it!!!
This morning I participated in a TV interview about street safety in San Jose. It’s easy to highlight street design as the culprit, but when you get to funding solutions this becomes the core issue👇

Love to see strong VTA year-over-year ridership gains for March 🚌🚈📈 VTA bus ⬆️ 18.5% VTA light rail rail ⬆️ 15.1% Overall ⬆️ 16.2% Average weekday ⬆️ 21.4% Thank you for taking transit in Santa Clara County!!! The boom is real!!!
A quirk of taking transit from SJ to SF is weighing the risks of rain induced delay when choosing between BART and Caltrain.
As @SFBART has this cool art, we should lean into the retro video game aesthetic in the South Bay @VTA @scc4transit

Once again, Blue Line for the win! Full light rail with passengers relaxing on their way home. @VTA
This is relevant as a critique of the agencies is they are not ‘rider focused’ or are protecting their ‘fiefdom.’ The opposite is true. If we understand our current service is based responding to community needs we can take the meaningful steps to improvement.

@MaxSiegelSJ I wish more people recognized this. BART would not be coming to SCC if it wasn't for local leadership!!!
Forgive us for answering a question with a question, but: What if you believed that fans and communities created major league sports, instead of the other way around? If you believed that, would you believe a comeback is possible?
"Ride to Raimondi" Who's in? "the team wants at least one-quarter of its fans to attend games this year by walking or biking and then double that goal to half of all fans next year" oaklandside.org/2024/04/30/rid… via @fermoso
Putting riders first means negotiating the best possible deal for us.
This Is The 2 Line
The story is that SCC is paying for all of BART and Caltrain ops in SCC, and VTA has the lowest service per capita in the Bay Area and more low-income riders than regional transit. Our reps are advocating for local residents in need to have bus service, which is good.
SCC's ability to do zero PR and still be incredible at hardball transportation negotiations is truly unmatched. We are only going to go up from here when they start telling good stories.
I'm a writer with a PR degree, so this stuff pains me a lot, but it's also so impressive at the same time lol

Jim (VTA) and Sen. Cortese did such an amazing job of speaking up for Santa Clara County at the hearing on SB1031 🥹 I'm sure it was hard for them to say the things they said, but it means so much that they care about us and are looking out for us.
For people who live in Santa Clara County and support transit, our electeds are sticking together and they will not support anything that would put VTA service at risk. We need and deserve great transit in SCC and we are going to get it someday.
I will say I wish @rideact did anywhere as much pride and outreach as BART and Muni does. They should hire a social media manager similar to those agencies. It's really easy for me to go viral pimping ACT stuff if I wanted.
Damn that sucks. My bus fare is 1/3rd federal minimum wage, tho.
I didn't go to @VivaCalleSJ today, but i did have to run errands via bike, and even though i wasn't near the route i saw so many people out and about on bikes, and it was so nice to see!
I finally zoomed out today and realized that what's really important with all of this transit stuff is that Santa Clara County believes in Santa Clara County transit. It might not be possible to get others to get it, but if we believe in our future, anything is possible.
It's so insulting that non-SCC advocates keep claiming that our transit electeds and staff aren't rider-focused. Our reps and staff prioritized service restoration and achieved some of the best ridership growth numbers in the US. All while people were being incredibly cruel.
