✅ The Blue Line will move the West Side forward!
“Our children, our parents and many of our employees rely upon transit to help them to get to and from school, to and from the grocery store, to the doctor’s office, to any place they need to go because they lack a reliable vehicle.” -@WayneTwpSuper (1/2)

The blue line would be a game changer for me! I could walk two blocks down the street and hop a bus to go to the airport. It would be incredible! @IndyGoBus
“You get around the world within one bound, but you can’t get to the airport. There’s no connectivity, and we have to make sure that our world-class airport has the ability to connect to each other.” -Mario Rodriguez, Executive Director of the @IAA_business (1/2)
The Blue Line will connect the world to Indy!

In a recent AARP survey, registered voters in Marion County expressed their resounding support for a comprehensive transportation network - which includes bus rapid transit lines. The plans for the @IndyGoBus Blue Line should remain intact. #50PlusRidestheBus
The Blue Line =
✅Sidewalks
✅Better Roads
✅Drainage
✅Crosswalks
In 2016, a majority of voters supported the referendum to expand transit.
👉 5 yrs later, that support has GROWN, with 74% supporting dedicated bus lanes and level-boarding stops.

While the General Assembly considers grinding plans for the Blue Line to a hault, it's important to know that registered voters staunchly support IndyGo and mass transit expansion in Indy. The numbers prove it: spr.ly/6013Jhto5
