re: Monorail in NWA. It's time.

Here's your rail map.

It hits:

The University of Arkansas
NWACC
WRMC
has a connecting spur in Farmington that also hits Weddington that would connect to the main line around Garland Ave.

It runs up to the mall and then onto Tyson's HQ, and Nortwest Medical, it has a Tontitown connection that connects to the main line either south of 412 or it could go direct to Emma Ave. It runs closer to the poorer areas of Springdale which really isn't that great of an idea but to not get raked over the coals by regressives you'd have to give the less-advantaged better access.

It then runs up to JB Hunt and onto the Promenade and Mercy Health with a spur kicking off to downtown Rogers.

The main line continues north towards NWACC where it loops towards downtown Bentonville/Crystal Bridges and the Walmart campuses where the XNA spur connects at the Home Office and the Pineville/Bella Vista connector joins in there as well.


Now if we had a transportation director worth a shite and some representatives in Washington that could get anything accomplished for their state and local legislators that cared about things that actually mattered, there would be a path to get this done and attract a whole new wave of professionals and businesspeople.
