Tolls? Railroad fare increases? A new Transportation Authority?

Dear Neighbors,

The Transportation Committee is holding a public hearing on three bills that I am watching very closely tomorrow regarding tolls, railroad fare increases, and a new Transportation Authority.

All three of these bills are very concerning for our communities. If you are concerned, you can have your voice heard by submitting testimony to the Transportation Committee.

How to submit your testimony? You can testify in person or send the committee an email. Your comments can be as brief as you like, but there is no limit on the length of written testimony. Just include your name and town, the subject of the bill in the subject line of the email, and copy my office at Nicole.Klarides-Ditria@housegop.ct.gov.

Transportation Committee.

As always, if you have concerns, questions, or ideas, please contact me at Nicole.Klarides-Ditria@housegop.ct.gov or 860-240-8700.
