It is difficult to really get your hands around the costs for Light Rail and Bus Rapid Transit when we talk about construction, maintenance, and operations, yet we will be impacted by the costs either directly or indirectly. What will LRT or BRT accomplish and how will it impact our cities of Norfolk and VB? I think we need to discuss these issues so that we can provide our informed inputs to City Council so that they can make a reasonable and cost effective decision.
