Campaign Priorities
The Tri-State Transportation Campaign and its allies claim to have achieved their goals of changing transportation planning and policies—particularly in reducing funding for road widening—over the past 13 years. In New Jersey, the organization was a key proponent of the NJ DOT's policy of connecting land use planning with transportation projects and has opposed many road improvements. In New York, TSTC has consistently promoted additional funding for transit services, especially suburban bus systems, obtaining grants from NYSDOT for the same purpose. TSTC has emerged as a leading voice in Connecticut as the state plans for a more transit-friendly future.

Famous quotes containing the words campaign and/or priorities:
“You campaign in poetry. You govern in prose.”
—Mario Cuomo (b. 1932)
“Work though we must, our jobs do not automatically determine our priorities concerning our marriages, our children, our social life, or even our health. It’s still life, constrained as it may be by limited disposable income or leisure time, and we’re still responsible for making it something we enjoy or endure.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
