This proposition encourages that the next priority corridor for Metro after the County extensions be the Northside-Southside Connector - a vital link to the region's light rail network. Proposition M will be on the St. Louis County's November 4th Ballot Initiative to expand Metro's light rail network and improve maintenance on its existing public transit facilities. The estimated $80 million in annual revenues generated by the measure will also prevent drastic cuts in both bus and Metrolink service in the County and City that are projected to go into effect in 2009 if Metro is unable to replace its funding cuts.
