The Green Line Expansion is designed to improve long-term commute times by adding five new stations and increasing overall system capacity. During construction, we understand there will be some disruptions. We are committed to minimizing these disruptions through detailed traffic management plans, clear detour signage, and regular communication with the public. We will also provide alternative transportation options, such as shuttle services, to help residents navigate around construction zones. Once completed, the expansion is projected to reduce average commute times by 15%.

Environmental sustainability is a key priority for this project. We have conducted a comprehensive environmental impact assessment and are implementing several mitigation measures. These include: * Using sustainable construction materials and practices. * Protecting and restoring local wildlife habitats. * Incorporating green spaces and landscaping into the new station designs. * The project itself will reduce carbon emissions by an estimated 10,000 tons annually. * We will be using electric construction vehicles when possible. We are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint and creating a more sustainable transportation system.

The Green Line Expansion is funded through a combination of federal grants, state funding, and local bonds. While the project will require an initial investment, we anticipate long-term economic benefits that will offset the costs. The city has carefully evaluated the financial implications and determined that the project is a sound investment in our community's future. There will be a very small increase to property tax, that has already been approved by voters. The increase will be spread out over a long period of time, to minimise the effect on homeowners. We are committed to transparency and accountability in our financial management.
