In November of last year, Councilwoman Gray proposed that VDOT reimburse Broad Street businesses for lost revenue. The state’s Secretary of Transportation called the request unlawful and ultimately, the proposal went nowhere.

No word yet on if this meeting is an effort to revive that proposal.

WHAT: Richmond, Virginia U.S.A. – The Honorable Kim B. Gray, Councilwoman, Richmond City Council, Richmond North Central 2nd Voter District, will hold a meeting for 2nd District business owners regarding construction of the Greater Richmond Transit Company (GRTC) Pulse bus route and its impact on them.
