Rice’s 31st Kinder Houston Area Survey reveals more Houstonians support mass transit

Rice’s 31st Kinder Houston Area Survey reveals more Houstonians support mass transit: "A large and growing proportion of Harris County residents emphatically support improvements in mass transit, and majorities are now calling for more opportunities to live within walking distance of shops and workplaces. Fifty-six percent of the respondents in Harris County and 61 percent in surrounding counties said that the development of a much-improved mass transit system is “very important” for the future success of the Houston area. A majority (51 percent) of Harris County residents want more taxpayer money to be spent on improving rail and buses rather than on expanding existing highways."
