Different Communities, Different Transportation Options and Marketing

Back from EXPO and your eyes are wandering from the your computer screen? Watch a job-related video or two.

Now, nothing works like quality, whether in public transit, vanpooling or a good pedestrian-friendly street network, but promoting those quality services is also important.

Idaho is promoting transit and transportation options beyond the single occupancy vehicle. With its i-way video, Idaho is showing its residents alternatives that work for people who are transportation challenged as well as those who would like to get out of their cars.

Boulder, Colo., voted high for livability and farmers markets, has a nice little film about coordination, advocacy, and volunteer work that over 20 years has produced a bike-able (and walkable)small city. This film is about collective priorities and how to achieve results as much as it is about transforming into a bike-oriented community.

So, relax, take out the popcorn, and be productive.
