WHERE
WE STAND
More than a decade ago CMT began its
mission to introduce MetroLink to the
St. Louis metropolitan area. Since
its opening in 1993, ridership has
exceeded expectations with an average
of 66,000 people choosing MetroLink
each day during summer months.
What's more, because of MetroLink
integration with the bus system, St.
Louisans once again have a public transit
system competative with automobile
travel. CMT members have played key
roles in the passage of funding measures
for the expansion of MetroLink and
other transportation improvements in
the region.
Our mission does not stop here but
reaches far beyond the scope of the
MetroLink expansion debate to rebuilding
the St. Louis City, County, and Illinois
neighborhoods by investing in rail
transit. Rail transit is not just a
way to move from point A to B but a
means to energize and revitalize existing
communities.
In 2002, CMT official mission was
changed to:
CMT leads advocacy efforts to expand light rail as the critical
component of an integrated, affordable and convenient public transportation
system that will enable economic growth to improve quality of life
in the St. Louis region.
Over the years, CMT has received many
awards. View
