    It must be stated to not implement road diets in this project. Road Diets, expanding Bus Rapid Transit, and expanding Light Rail put small businesses out of business, increase crashes and serious injuries, increase traffic and pollution. Valley Metro's revenue from ridership is only 16%. 81% comes from Member Cities and Federal Funding. Public Transit is failing, and Phoenix needs to stop propping up failing industries. These policies do not generate the results Phoenix residents want to see.
