Just saw Deutsche Bahn's new Brompton rental program - maybe something like this is where bikeshare in #RVA needs to go next. Cost effective on a monthly basis (41 Euros), more freedom than docked bike share, and easy to bring onto #GRTC with you (linked page in German) https://www.deutschebahnconnect.com/faltrad
This is a great, clear-eyed look at what it would mean to actually extend the #GRTC Pulse out towards Short Pump. tl,dr: lots of ped/bike improvements needed along the Broad Street corridor, but extension to Parham is a logical first phase. #RVA #transit #brt https://planrva.org/wp-content/uploads/West-Broad-BRT-Corridor-Analysis_FINAL.pdf
Love to see a #MicroTransit pilot project here in #RVA, and to see #GRTC thinking about filling in gaps in service area http://ridegrtc.com/statistics-reports/projects-plans/richmond-region-micro-transit/
Spent the weekend in Richmond, VA. while I didn’t get a chance to ride, and I know GRTC has faced both funding and planning issues, the Pulse’s bus stops were by far the nicest I’ve seen in a long time
