San Diego's Metropolitan Transit System has released a feasibility study that examines connecting the trolley to San Diego International Airport.

The study found no "fatal flaws" in the concept, meaning it could be built within the next decade. The MTS board of directors received the report last week and voted to include the project on its list of capital improvements to plan for.

Colin Parent, executive director of the nonprofit Circulate San Diego, joined KPBS Midday Edition to discuss the study's findings.

A big decision awaits some voters this July as the race for San Diego County’s Supervisor District 1 seat heats up. Are you ready to vote? Check out the KPBS Voter Hub to learn about the candidates, the key issues the board is facing and how you can make your voice heard.
