Dear Mr.
Biehler,
At the Regular Meeting of Allegheny
County Council, Council approved a Motion sponsored by Council Member Jan Rea
expressing the Sense of Council of Allegheny County urging the Pennsylvania
Department of Transportation to open traffic lanes currently designated for high
occupancy vehicles to all vehicle traffic during rush hour, as a result of
anticipated increased traffic volume in the wake of the Allegheny County Port
Authority's service reductions.
The vote was 11-1, with Council
Members Burn, Fawcett, and Martoni not present for the vote, and Council Member
Macey voting no.
Your attention to this Motion is
requested.
John
Mascio
Chief
Clerk
Allegheny County
Council
