Federal Budget Proposal Includes Money For New Bus Route

Central Ohio Transit Authority officials say federal dollars mean Columbus could be getting it's long-discussed rapid transit route along Cleveland Avenue.  COTA officials say 38-million-dollars in President Obama's federal budget proposal would be set aside for the Cmax project.  If Congress approves the funds, the nearly 16-mile route between downtown and the Polaris area would be running by 2017.
