Posted by Content Coordinator on Thursday, December 17th, 2009William Lind: A Conservative Voice For Public Transportation
Posted by Infra on Thursday, December 3rd, 2009“At the 2009 Rail-Volution conference in Boston, Streetfilms was able to grab a few moments with the political conservative, transit advocate, William Lind. Lind aims to provide “liberal transit advocates” the language to build bipartisan support for public transportation (okay, just rail) in terms that conservatives can relate to.

Now nearly complete, the Sands Street approach to the Manhattan Bridge is now safer and more enjoyable thanks to a first-of-its-kind in NYC: a center-median, two-way, protected bike path.

Posted by Infra on Thursday, October 1st, 2009
The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (“LACMTA”) and CALSTART are creating an implementation plan for the development of a folding bike subsidy program. The program will provide price discounts for the purchase of a collapsible bike to use in conjunction with transit.
