Program Description

Event Details

Long-time commuter advocate and newspaper commentator Jim Cameron offers a lively Zoom presentation and Q&A on Connecticut’s transportation crisis:

- Will riders ever return to Metro-North?

- Who will pay to keep the trains running?

- Where will money be found for our highways?

- How will new residential / workplace trends affect CT’s economy?

Cameron explores the options in an engaging, thought-provoking workshop with plenty of time to hear your ideas and answer your questions. Cameron has been called “the transportation guru” having spent over 25 years working and reporting on the issue.

A former NBC News anchor, Jim Cameron is recipient of the George Foster Peabody Award. A Connecticut resident for over 25 years, he served on the Metro-North Commuter Council and authors a weekly newspaper column, “Getting There” which runs in the Hearst daily and weekly newspapers.
