Re: The article “Tech-downtown rail line? Maybe,” A-J, Jan. 5.
Building a monorail between Texas Tech and downtown could work if Mr. McDougal’s plan to attract businesses and residents back to the area is successful. Of course, the same level of public mobility might be achieved more cheaply by adding Citibus routes.
My real problem with the article centers on what Mayor Robertson said, “I think it would have to be a part of a federal, state and local project.”
It’s the ‘federal’ part of that statement that sends up red flags for me.
