The signs are about as bright as they've been for a long time. We've got the highest confidence in hiring that we've seen since we started doing the survey, with the biggest spread between employers planning to hire and those planning to diminish their workforce.
I think people realize what's at stake here.
Transportation is something that people feel every day. It's an ugly problem. It's very, very frustrating.
Transportation has been a top problem for a decade. It's finally getting traction with elected leaders.
This is a continued cry for help from the people stuck in traffic each day whose only option is to grip the steering wheel tighter. This is both a state and a regional failure to address the problem. We've really shortchanged infrastructure in the state and in the region over the past decade, and it's taken its toll.
As we suspected, that now appears to have been only a momentary shock, and the Bay Area business community expects the region's economy to steadily improve.
What a difference three months make. This is strong news for our economy and Bay Area workers.
We've finally been able to get political leaders to agree that it's time for a major infrastructure investment. Things are moving in the right direction.
