OAKLAND (KPIX 5) — The greater Bay Area has some of the worst traffic in the nation. Now one group is proposing a ballot measure that would provide a $100 billion solution.
The “Faster Bay Area” measure measure is sponsored by the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, the Bay Area Council and the regional planning think tank SPUR. They want a measure on the November 2020 ballot to get voters to approve the $100 billion tax that would spread over 40 years to rebuild and coordinate all the transits agencies in the Bay Area.
