Getting from Point A to Point B is a big deal in Duluth.

There are a lot of options (walking, biking, public transportation, skiing) and a lot of challenges (weather, bike-friendly streets, access to transportation for folks without cars or with disabilities).

So Duluth City Council candidates are invited to a public forum tomorrow evening so community members can suss out what "transportation equity" means to them.
