Improve Public Transportation

We must improve New Hanover County’s public transportation infrastructure to benefit both our community's residents and our visitors. By expanding transportation options, we can alleviate traffic congestion, reduce pedestrian accidents, and provide safer alternatives for individuals enjoying our vibrant community. 

 

Once elected, I will: 

• Call for increased representation from various stakeholders on the WAVE board, including those who rely on public transportation and representatives from major employers, to ensure that the needs of all residents are effectively addressed. 

• Advocate for the county to adopt a plan to increase bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure in the county, including connections to City of Wilmington bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure.

• Improve communication and public relations efforts to enhance awareness and accessibility of our transportation services. 

• Foster regional public-private partnerships that will allow us to add to public transportation offerings in cost effective ways.
