COMING SHORTLY - CAST Statement on the 3 Billion Tunnel
We have opposed the concept and construction of the 3B

We're preparing a detailed statement to explain why we
continue to vigorously oppose the Tunnel, and why we urge
all motorists to boycott the Tunnel.
Keep checking this site for our full statement.
