On the recordFebruary 10, 1994
damage caused by the Northridge earthquake has severely impacted the movement of people and goods. Until repairs and reconstruction of damaged facilities are completed, California will need to implement, over time, the necessary transportation management strategies to maximize the movement of people and goods. Transportation management strategies--including but not limited to construction of detours and modifications to existing roads to increase transportation capacities including development of High Occupancy Vehicle facilities, motorist and public information systems, upgrading and increasing transit services, including increased bus, rail and van pooling services and implementation of an intermodal emergency universal transit pass--are critical to providing alternative services to those services that were lost with the damage to the transportation system. Many of these activities are similar to activities implemented following the Loma Prieta earthquake in 1989.

I think we have to pay attention to David Axelrod. He is really brilliant when it comes to winning campaigns.
