Oh boy. Here we go.

Tonight, City Visions Radio on KALW will chat about the Central Subway, its pros and cons. Naturally, the Central Subway is a super nifty project. (Because progress is building stuff, and building stuff is the FUTURE! No matter what!) Tonight's show will focus on San Francisco's plan to build a subway linking Chinatown with the new Third Street light rail. The $1.5 billion project would also link the Caltrain terminal at 4th and King with Chinatown.

Guests discussing the heated transit topic will be San Francisco Municipal Transit Agency's John Funghi, project manager for the Central Subway; David Schonbrunn, president of Transdef and a member of Save Muni, the organization opposed to the central subway plan; and, Andrew Sullivan, chair of Rescue Muni, "a riders’ advocacy and watchdog group."

But with the Muni budget shoved in the crapper, is the Central Subway worth the cost? (Sure, why not.) Will enough passengers take the Chinatown subway to make it worth anyone's while? (If the 30-Stockton could be any indication, yes.) Would some sort of Geary subway make more sense? (Duh.) These questions and more will be bandied about on 97.1 at 7 p.m.

Also, City Visions Radio would love your participation during the show. Please call 415-841-4134 to voice your golden nuggets of wisdom on the air.
