Support RM3
If you live in the Bay Area, you know one of our biggest problems as a region is traffic. Everywhere in the Bay Area has gridlock and transportation issues, from Sonoma to Santa Clara. Too many Bay Area drivers spend hours and hours in their cars every week – keeping them away from their families and things they would like to do. We need to address this issue as a region, and we need to do it now.
Regional Measure 3 is a bold $4.5 Billion plan that funds a specific list of traffic relief projects which are critical to maintaining our regional economy and quality of life. "RM3" was intentionally designed to tackle some of the most congested traffic corridors in the region. The list of specific improvements includes $130 million for Dumbarton Bridge improvements, $150 Million for the San Francisco Bay Trail/Safe Routes to Transit, $300 Million for Bay Area Managed lanes (like HWY 101), $375 million to extend BART to San Jose/Silicon Valley and link with Caltrain, and $325 million to extend Caltrain into Downtown San Francisco.
RM3 will help us travel all the way around the Bay by rail; fix freeway bottlenecks; increase ferry service; and improve connections between buses, trains, and bikes so that we can get to work, school and home more quickly.
