We need modern mass transit.
I'm WILL ROSCOE and I'm running for BART's Board of Directors in District 7.
I don't want to run for office but I'm frustrated with our dirty, noisy, and dangerous Bay Area transport systems. They're not what you’d expect from a region filled with world class cities and minds. BART leadership has failed to give us concrete plans, based on foresight, new technologies, & efficiency, which will provide the Bay Area with exceptional mass transit by 2037. We need to raise our expectations of our leaders. My campaign starts with this vision: to build the world's best transportation system within 2 decades. If any of my opponents can show me that they’re committed to building the world's best transport system within 20 years, I'll happily end my campaign and support theirs. Thanks for your interest in BART leadership. -Will |
Let's build the world's best transit system by 2037! Research over the past last 5 years has handed the transit industry a paradigm shift. If public transit agencies like BART don’t seize these opportunities, all the wealth created from the new technologies will be captured by private stakeholders. I believe that efficient transportation, like parks, power, clean water, and internet is our right and should be managed to benefit the public. BART's Board of directors must look to the future, utilize new technologies, and move forward with planning now and immediate action. |
This is an unusual campaign.
I will run this campaign like I want the whole election process to run.

You should run for office.
Please run for elected office. It's obvious from this year's presidential election that we need a wider pool from which to draw the best candidates. What is your area of concern? Get your name on the ballot. State your positions. Share them with the person sitting next to you as you commute.
