The next vision42 working group event will be participation in EarthFair on Friday and Saturday, April 18th (12-7pm) and 19th (11-5pm), an event sponsored by Earth Day New York, in Vanderbilt Avenue just north of 42nd Street, where we will be distributing literature and information on this project to the general public from the vision42 booth. This will take the place of our regular April meeting. The next regular meeting will be on Tuesday, May 20th, from 6 to 8 pm, at the office of Transportation Alternatives, 127 West 26th Street, Suite 1002. Please respond to info@vision42.org if you wish to participate in either of these events, sending your name and e-mail address, if we don't already have it, and the hours when you might be able to help with EarthFair. |

The Urban Land Institute, New York District Council, hosted a forum "Transportation Transformed: Innovations in the Tapestry of Urban Transit" on Tuesday, March 6, 2007, at 5 Times Square. Presentations were made on vision42, the High Line, the Water Taxi system, and THE (Trans-Hudson Express) Tunnel. Featured were key findings by vision42 consultants on the plan's construction costs and staging, its traffic impacts, and its projected economic and fiscal benefits of more than $1 billion annually — in large part the result of an expected increase of 35 percent more pedestrian traffic.
If you'd like to learn more about vision42, its traffic impacts, its costs, and its (tremendous) economic potential, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with the key findings of the vision42 Technical Studies, as well as the full reports - all available on this website. |
