major cities with the
worst case of air
pollution in the United
States
• Ozone level in Cincinnati
is 65 parts per billion

SOLUTION
• Transportation Choice Fund (2013): Set aside $75
million in federal transportation funds
• Supported by environmental organizations (Sierra Club,
Transit Columbus, Ohio Environmental Council, Policy
Matters Ohio, and etc.)
• Why pass this bill?
• Reduce the need to expand highways and freeways
• More transportation choices
• Cost-beneficial to the environment, economy, and public
health
ROADBLOCK/BARRIERS
• The government (federal,
state, and local) are
investing their money on
highways and freeways
• Government consider
cancelling public
transportation projects
OPPORTUNITY TO FACILITATE ITS
ADOPTION
• Take advantage of
the available public
transportation
• If you have a car,
don’t rely on it too
much
ARE YOU UP FOR THIS PLAN?
