An introduction…
Hi all,
Joshua has kindly given me a login for the blog so that I can join him and Jeremy in making regular posts on transport topics. It is probably a good idea that I introduce myself as you may be seeing a bit more of my thoughts in the future, so here goes:
My name is Nicolas Reid, some readers may know me as Nick R from the comments pages, the CBT forums and various other blogs.…
From around the Transit Blogosphere
To broaden the horizons of readers when it comes to transport matters, here are a few posts from around the transit blogosphere of late that I have found interesting read: Metro Rider LA talks about one of my favourite topics, the high cost of free parking.…
