City Manager Question Time: Day 4

Here’s my contribution for City Manager Question Time: Day 4. For those of you scoring at home, I had to skip Day 3 yesterday. I’ll give you a free blog tomorrow to make up for it.

Question #4: Our company is located on Wallace Rd. in Eden Prairie. We have a person living in Victoria who is really feeling the pain of gas prices. She is looking for alternative transportation options..such as car/van pooling.(the bus schedule doesn’t fit her schedule). Would appreciate your input. Thanks in advance.

Scott Says: This is a tough one. Victoria is served by SouthWest Transit, but it appears the bus system is not going to be a viable solution to this problem. You could certainly try the website for Metro Transit and look for possible car or van pools there. Sorry I couldn’t help more, but I’ll bet that staff at one of these two transit agencies will be able to be much more helpful (and knowledgeable) with this question than I am. Good luck.
