Baltimore "Red Line" Transit Proposal to kick off

From today's BaltimoreSun.com:

Says a "fan" on the project's Facebook page, "A real city needs a real transit system."

In addition to this being an eco-friendly solution to the glut of cars going in and out of the city daily, Baltimore is aggressively using social media to get the message across. In addition to the above-mentioned Facebook page, there is a website, flickr account and a Twitter page.
