Save the train! Public meetings by WisDOT

Wondering what you can do to save high-speed rail in Wisconsin?

Here is your chance.

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation is holding four public hearings on the high-speed rail project in these next couple weeks. None of them are in Milwaukee, but we decided to post the information on them here just in case people would have an opportunity to attend.

All of these meetings run from 5:00 PM to 7:00PM.

Tuesday November 30, 2010 in LaCrosse at the Best Western-Riverfront Hotel at 1835 Rose St.

Wednesday December 1, 2010 in Eau Claire at the Best Western-Trail Lodge Hotel 3340 Mondovi Rd.

Thursday December 2, 2010 in Fond du Lac at UW-Fond du Lac

Tuesday December 7, 2010 in Madison at the WisDOT Southwest Region Office 2101 Wright St.

If you can make it, stand up for high speed rail in Wisconsin and make sure that the $810 million budgeted for it, as well as the 13,000 jobs this is expected to create, STAY in Wisconsin.
