Questions for 2012 City of Houston candidates

Do City of Houston candidates care about your neighborhood's transportation needs?

Dozens of individuals campaign to serve as Mayor, Controller, or on Houston City Council. If elected, these individuals directly influence transportation policy in the Houston region. In order to understand their views, we ask the candidates 20 questions about transportation and land use.

Support for transportation alternatives

We need mobility choices

With fuel costs soaring, demand for alternatives to driving has never been greater. We call on our elected officials to ensure a broad array of transportation choices that serves all citizens. More than 20 organizations have formally adopted the CTC resolution for transportation alternatives and your organization can, too.

Toll road accountability

In 2008, Harris County Commissioners budgeted $576 million for toll road infrastructure, nearly half of the County's fiscal 2008-2009 Infrastructure Appropriations budget. Harris County Toll Road Authority (HCTRA) proposals for new toll roads will not only affect our region but also your neighborhood. More than 50 organizations have formally adopted CTC's resolution for toll road accountability.
