High Speed Rail would put Redding on the map

High Speed Rail needed

“The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.” -Michelangelo

From the USHSR website: “Our vision is for a 21st century, 17,000 mile national high speed rail system built in 4 phases, for completion by 2030. This new national system will revitalize our economy, reactivate our manufacturing sector, create millions of jobs, end our oil dependency, and cut our carbon footprint by epic proportions, something that is always worth going to find more info about. Powered by electricity, this system provides sustainable, affordable, and safe mobility for all.”

A new rail line/system will not only add to the culture of the area but it will also bring in more tourists and others to the area. This is a huge leap forward for the economy as well the environment, to anyone that is involved this can help immensely, as previously mentioned, with jobs, hopefully starting people off on a viable and sustainable career path that helps the population. There are various ways in which promotion can be done for this railway in the US, the railway marketing services in the UK are similar in the way they want to promote a cleaner and more efficient manner of transportation. Using a planning and preparation company can help with the marketing of this railway so that it brings in the customers needed for it to make an impact on the environment and an impact on how people travel in their day-to-day lives.

Jobs, transportation, reduction in oil dependence. Nothing but upside for Redding in this idea. Our community began this latest phase of civilization as a rail town, back in 1872. This is our next logical step. Let’s take it.
