What laughable BS: “Who knew asphalt could help save the environment?”

This might be the same organization behind the decision to not allow Kiniko Sharyo to build a factory in the LA area to assemble LR vehicles. If they have their way the only buses available to transit agencies would probably be Gillig.
It is interesting that the Sierra Club is a member of this organization that seeks to ensure that transit agencies buy more expensive, less fuel efficient designs. ]]>

Very interesting blog. There are a lot of issues with transportation that you point out. Here in Florida we’re not much better than California…

The phrase “mathematically-illiterate” is incorrect; it should be “mathematically illiterate.” The word mathematically is an adverb, so it can modify illiterate, which is an adjective; it shouldn’t be joined with illiterate via a hyphen.

Here is a candidate. Translink spends 4.5 Million on a parking lot that no transit users use

Plus, doesn’t allowing the movement of more cars just negate all the environmental benefits?
]]>Meanwhile, the video explains that it’s really about sensors (which happen to be embedded in asphalt) and data collection. The video also shows what appear to be pole-mounted sensors and/or sensor relays … so they could just as well have said: “Who knew poles could help save the environment?”

OK to perform final assembly abroad, but only using US-made components!
