During a recent city council meeting in Moore, discussions centered around the long-debated topic of public transportation, specifically the potential implementation of light rail services. A council member expressed frustration over the council's decision to cease discussions on light rail, which had initially been considered in 2018. The member highlighted the importance of public transportation for residents, particularly emphasizing that only 2% of the population lacks access to cars, suggesting that the current transportation options, including buses and rideshare services, do not adequately meet the needs of the community.

The council member argued that light rail could significantly improve mobility within Moore and facilitate access to essential services, such as medical appointments. Despite the acknowledgment of these needs, the council's previous decision to withdraw from discussions on light rail has left many residents without viable transportation solutions.

Following the discussion, the council proceeded to vote on the matter, with all members present supporting the motion. The meeting then transitioned to the More Public Works Authority session, indicating a shift in focus from transportation to other municipal matters. The outcome of this meeting reflects ongoing challenges in addressing public transportation needs in the city, as well as the council's commitment to exploring alternative solutions.
