Serían deseables actuaciones como la puesta en marcha de autobuses eléctricos, reordenación de líneas, revisión de cánones a la baja y precios simbólicos a determinados sectores de la población, subvención para mantener determinadas líneas en activo du...

2008-09-01 00:33:00 Anyone living outside the city where he is working can face problems brought about by commuting to work. Carpooling is a flexible, convenient and less-expensive way to reach your destination. Carpooling is also known as car-sharing, ride-sharing, and lift-sharing.Carpooling is very beneficial for both of us "Ourselves and our nature": -saves the world’s oil reserves. -reduces the number of cars on the road and as a result reduces congestion. -Saves money on commuting costs and also reduces impact on the the environment.According to a recent US study, "Commuting in America":- U.S. drivers wasted 4.2 billion hours sitting in traffic in 2005. - Traffic delays consumed approximately 2.9 billion gallons of fuel. - In Los Angeles, the average driver wastes about 72 hours/year going nowhere.Conventional carpools usually have at least one rider who habitually sleeps late, causing others to have to wait and risking everyone arriving late to work. The "casual carpools" organized using this si...

Why the European system of Mass transport works: Nobody uses it.
2008-06-06 17:43:00 An interesting story yesterday, on the AP wires:  Researchers secretly tracked the locations of 100,000 people outside the United States through their cell phone use and concluded that most people rarely stray more than a few miles from home. The first-of-its-kind study by Northeastern University raises privacy and ethical questions for its monitoring methods, which would be illegal in the United States. Well, OK. Leaving aside the security/morality issues involved, we can make use of the data collected, in the following way; We may assume that we are talking about phones somewhere else in the world, given that as they suggest such a study would be against the law, here. Likely, then, given that and given the raw numbers, we’re talking about the EU. What we have is a picture of mobility, or the lack thereof,  in Europe. Well first, that meshes because at $6 and $8 per gallon of gas, no bloody wonder nobody ever travels. But more; We’re so often told about the wond...

Monday: Transport Strike, Work and Food
2008-05-13 15:10:00 I decided I’d do a five-post series about my last five days in Davao. I’ll be leaving for Cebu this Saturday and I want to keep track on how I will spend my five remaining days. It’s Monday. There is a nation-wide transport strike going on. I can somehow see its effect. The city government deployed buses to replace the public transport. But I’m glad there are taxis around. I spent the afternoon with Kuya Andrew and Ate Ria. We went to Fagioli to grab some coffee and abuse the free WiFi they offer. Kuya and I had to finish some work, or rather get some work started (again). Ate Ria left earlier because she had to get something from the mall. We stayed at the coffee shop until seven in the evening and head back down town to pick Ate Ria. We decided to have dinner at Dulce Manos. The three of us ordered their famous Shrimp with Alavar Sauce (P85) while Kuya Blogie, who followed, had his serving of Lechon Kawali (P105). The meal was “underwhelming&...

The Amazing Pet Transport System
2008-05-05 15:24:00 I took part in a pet transport Saturday. It was the first one I have participated in, not because I haven't wanted to before, but because either the legs near my location were filled, or I was already booked on the day of the transport.For those of you who don't know what a pet transport is, there is a whole network of rescue folks across the country who arrange for transportation to get animals from one place to another -- many times across multiple states. That was the case on Saturday.Two beautiful pit bulls, Hazel and her son Benne, needed to get from New Iberia, LA to Minneapolis, MN. Both are incredibly sweet dogs. They were being transferred from a temporary boarding facility to a rescue. Unfortunately, Pit bulls frequently end up dead in our southern shelters, and we wanted to make sure Hazel and Benne avoided that fate.I don't get to go to the "big city" of Little Rock very often, so I thought this would be a great outing for me, my son Nick, and my nephew Michael.
