Weather Won’t Stall Tonight’s “Commuter Speakout”

The 1st-ever “Commuter Speakout” is still on for 7:30 tonight, at the Pequot Library in Southport.

Connecticut Department of Transportation commissioner Jim Redeker will be joined by Metro-North officials from Operations and Customer Service. They’ll discuss why rail service has deteriorated, offer proposed fixes, and answer questions from commuters.

Sounds great — and very important.

But — sorry, I can’t help myself — let’s hope the “Metro-North officials” drive there.

With today’s weather, if they take the train they may never arrive.
