Proposition 1 huummmm

　
In three months, President Obama will receive the results from the census bureau. Then us Austinites will see and learn how our city and region have changed since 2000. We already know that we are the fourth fastest growing city in America this past 10 year by the yearly estimation from the Census Bureau.
By next year, Austin's population will be 800,000 plus, which would make Austin, TX. the 15th-largest city in America. And our dramatic growth doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Experts predict that the population of Austin's will reach or surpass 2 million in the next 40 plus years.
With an extra million cars on our roads makes a lot more traffic. So Proposition 1 would be a great solution to this upcoming problem. Why not try to nip this problem in the butt before it actually becomes a huge problem in the future. Hey if you think about it its already a problem for us now.
Proposition 1 will invest $90 million in roads, sidewalks, bikeways and trails across Austin. And guess what all that without raising property taxes.
There is also other great reasons to vote for Proposition 1.
For example, Proposition 1 will provide more roads, and make the others better. That’s a great start, however, that doesn’t solve all the traffic problems. This also helps with pedestrians and bicycle transportation.
Proposition 1 is also designed to deliver relief in this term. Which means construction will start on all proposed project with in the next 2 years. This is also a great break for the us taxpayers due to the low estimated cost of construction jobs due to the economy. Why not take full advantage of the opportunity.
Austin traffic has been said to be a serial killer, with an average of 60 traffic death over the past 5 years, and 33 so far this year. Prop. 1 will obviously help this very serious situation to relieve the congested traffic, and as well making our streets and roads much safer. If you ask me that’s a good enough reason for everyone to vote for Prop. 1. Right?
One last fact to leave you with is that Prop. 1 creates a foundation for transportation investments in the future, and also will put many of the important transportation projects to shovel ready status.
