Considering the fact that Madison just had to pass a budget referendum to avoid making cuts to services, this seems like a good way to fill that gap. It may also incentivize bus and bike travel, which would be beneficial to Metro and traffic patterns.

Hi there! I'm in Madison and am pretty active on the subreddit. I'm making my way over here slowly but surely. I am in grad school for urban planning. I enjoy talking and debating politics and philosophy, and am active on the Social Democracy subreddit.
