From Urban Decay to Transit Haven?

This channels second video covered Cleveland’s successful BRT called the HealthLine and some of Cleveland’s other transit and urbanism strengths. This video examines the future of transit in Cleveland with insights from Sam Smucny, the Secretary of Clevelanders for Public Transit. How can a city that’s been shrinking for 50 years—and that's been starved for funding—improve transit and prepare for the future, including the possibility of rebounding growth fueled by climate refuges?
