The Purple Line is a critical project that will connect our communities, create 27,000 permanent jobs, take cars off the road, leverage $900 million in federal funds, and is ready for construction in 2016. But, this great project is in real danger of being cancelled by the incoming Hogan administration, and we need our elected officials in Annapolis to make it their top priority to fight for the Purple Line. Let’s make sure our delegates and senators know how important this project is to us – please join us for Transit Night in Annapolis to meet with your elected officials and send a strong message!
