I've been on the best bus ride today - Huddersfield to Hebden Bridge via Ripponden. Spectacular snowy scenery, a short eared owl, a deer scraping at the snow trying to find something to nibble on and then a barn owl. I have a bus pass so it was free, but even without that it would have only been 2 quid!

On the bus there’s two people dancing in their seats to “Ain’t no stopping us now”

Tempering enthusiasm over this weekend's opening of the D Line rapid transit route is that it coincides with further service cuts at Metro Transit in the Twin Cities.

From an email noting the continued shortage of bus drivers, "…it is more important to offer schedules we can maintain than to promise trips we cannot consistently deliver, putting people at risk of waiting for buses that arrive late or not at all."

You're never lonesome when you ride the street cars.

Our long-awaited streetcar-city bus rapid transit D Line opens this weekend in Minneapolis and environs. In practical terms, for me, it'll mean straightforward connections to IKEA, the megamall, and central library for a dollar, off-peak.

"We will be also offering free rides on the METRO D Line between Saturday, Dec. 3 and Monday, Dec. 5. This will give you a chance to try out the service and see if you like it."
