Public transportation has had a stop at SE 6th and Hartford Ave since it started on the Southside.  It is something that was utilized by our grandfather’s generation, our father’s generation, and our generation.  We want to keep that stop for future generations too.

Therefore, there is a petition available to sign at B&B Grocery, Meat & Deli.  The petition states:

The people signing the attached would like the service restored to the stop at SE 6th Street and Hartford.  Many of these people are seniors who now have to go over to Indianola and Hartford.  This is a major obstacle for residents using mobility devises or who otherwise need assistance with walking such a distance with few sidewalks, especially in bad weather.  Even in good weather it is dangerous for people to be walking in the street.  There are also people in the neighborhood that use DART transportation to and from work.  The Neighborhood Development Corporation is constructing a building between Hartford and Hillside at SE 6th.  This building will contain apartments with people that will also need transportation.

Please stop by and sign this petition to ensure our neighbors have access to DART at SE 6th and Hartford.
