An Open Letter to the 2022 Gubernatorial Candidates on Transportation in Rhode Island

On Wednesday, July 27th, 2022, 36 organizations that are deeply concerned about the future of Rhode Island’s transportation systems sent an open letter to each of the 8 candidates for governor, calling on the next administration to make bold changes to bring our state’s transportation infrastructure into the 21st century.

The letter states that “Rhode Island’s outdated transportation system is failing to keep pace with the needs of our residents, our economy and our planet. We believe that Rhode Islanders deserve a transportation system that provides for their diverse mobility needs, reduces air pollution, improves local economic development, supports affordable housing development, and cuts greenhouse gas emissions.”
