This week on Talking Central Florida, another new transportation plan aims to bring more rapid bus and rail options to some of Central Florida's busiest corridors.
Host Steve Mort is joined by Ryan Gillespie from the Orlando Sentinel and Sarah Winkelmann from Spectrum News 13 to discuss the Sunshine Transit Advancement Resolution, or STAR Plan.
Plus a look at how voters are currently assessing the arguments for and against Amendment 3, and where gubernatorial candidates Byron Donalds and David Jolly stand on diversified uses of Tourist Development Tax revenues.
Talking Central Florida airs Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. on Central Florida Public Media (90.7 WMFE / 89.5 WMFV) and 7 p.m. on Vision TV in Orange County. Find it on podcast platforms and YouTube. A production of the News Collaborative of Central Florida.
