Link21 to host virtual workshops to shape the future of transportation in Northern California

The San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART), Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority (Capitol Corridor), in coordination with several municipal and transportation agencies throughout the 21-County Northern California Megaregion will host a series of online public workshops for the Link21 Program beginning Thursday, June 17. Special guest speakers will kick-off each virtual forum.

Each interactive workshop will focus on a different area of the Megaregion and will be co-hosted by transportation agencies and other Link21 partner agencies throughout Northern California to inform the public and gather feedback about their transportation needs and priorities.
