Tampa-Orlando High Speed Rail: NY Times Is Critical

23 Mar 2010 5:07 PM | Jackson McQuigg (Administrator)

The New York Times this week chose to cast a critical eye on the state's plans for high speed rail between Tampa and Orlando.

The following two items focus on the Tampa-Orlando segment only and do not consider it as part of a planned Tampa-Orlando-Miami high speed rail network in Florida.

The Times also questions a lack of connectivity between HSR and other modes in the state's plan (other than municipal transit buses).
