This episode originally aired on July 9, 2025.

LinkUs is a 25-year, $8 billion transportation plan for central Ohio.

For the Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) the funds come from a 0.5% sales tax.

The voter-approved sales tax went into effect in April, so now the money has started actually coming in.

COTA’s President Monica Tellez-Fowler joins All Sides to discuss LinkUs, future plans and the latest transit developments.
