FORT PIERCE WOULD BE A WONDERFUL “ LOCATION. CENTRALLY LOCATED ON THE TREASURE COAST. ALREADY HAS PLENTY OF TRAIN TRACKS AND PARKING GARAGES. -P. PRESNELL #LOVETHEFORT
85%
OF POLL PARTICIPANTS ARE IN FAVOR OF A PASSENGER TRAIN STATION IN FORT PIERCE
OUT OF 1,700 SURVEYS I LIVE IN MARTIN COUNTY. HOORAY FT. PIERCE. SINCE THE TRAIN TRACKS ARE ALREADY THERE AND BRIGHTLINE IS GOING TO USE THEM; I VOTE FOR FT. PIERCE.

“THAT WOULD BE SUCH AN EXCELLENT WAY TO TRAVEL UP AND DOWN THE COAST! THE TRAINS ARE SO NICE, IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE. -B. SYLVESTER
“MIAMI BOUND ON SUNDAY TO GET TO SEE THE DOLPHINS. I’M ALL FOR IT. -G. HURST
BRING IT! BE NICE TO CATCH THE TRAIN SOUTH WITHOUT DRIVING TO WEST PALM.
-A. CONCEPCION
WELL FORT PIERCE SHOULD WIN BY DEFAULT AS WE HAD A STATION HERE IN THE OLD DAYS AND WE HAVE NOT AND ARE NOT SUING BRIGHTLINE ..... THE RAIL SWITCHING YARD IS RIGHT NEXT DOOR AND THE CITRUS OVERPASS IS THERE FOR EMERGENCY TRACK CROSSING IF NEEDED. I THINK WE COULD BE THE NEXT MINI-ST. AUGUSTINE WITH THE PROPER DEVELOPMENT MIX ON THE POWER PLANT PROJECT AND IT RUNS FROM THE TRACKS TO THE RIVERFRONT. THIS WOULD BE THE CENTER PIECE OF DOWNTOWN AS IN CITY PLACE IF DONE PROPERLY. THE TRAIN STATION COULD PLAY INTO THIS DEVELOPMENT AND BRING PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER TO ENJOY OUR LITTLE DOWNTOWN. AGAIN ALL OF THIS COULD TIE TOGETHER WITH STATION AND POWER PLANT PROPERTY AND MAYBE ATTRACT A NATIONAL DEVELOPER TO HANDLE THIS HUGE PROJECT AND BUILD A CROWN JEWEL FOR FORT PIERCE. YEA GO TRAIN!

“BOY THIS WILL BE PRAYERS ANSWERED.

ONE OF MY MAIN GRIPES ABOUT BRIGHTLINE WAS THAT THEY WERE IGNORING THE TREASURE COAST. IF THEY WERE TO MAKE FORT PIERCE A STOP I COULD GET BEHIND THEM. WOULD BE GREAT FOR OUR ECONOMY HERE! -D. REHEIS
“THERE’S ALREADY A SPOT IN FT. PIERCE. THERE USED TO BE A TRAIN STATION THERE YEARS AGO. -D. CHISHOLM
FT. PIERCE SUPPORTS BRIGHTLINE, HAS ENDORSED A STATION, AND HAS THE LAND. PLUS, IT IS CENTRAL BETWEEN SEBASTIAN, VERO BEACH AND PORT ST. LUCIE. -G. BRUNNER
#DOWNTOWN
I USED TO DRIVE TO MIAMI EVERY DAY. STUDENTS AND WORKERS NEED THIS TRANSPORTATION NOW. PLEASURE HURRY WITH CONSTRUCTION. MORE JOBS TO THE AREA. -K. BLANCO-RETANA
