Talking Transportation Blog

Although I have my beef with the Cincinnati Enquirer and its "news interface platform" thingamajib that devotes more time to its coverage of Moms than to international events, I am impressed with their attempt to have pertinent blogs. Unfortunately, their Talking Transportation blog is one of the least updated. Why don't people get up in arms for transportation change? Is it so much to ask that people consider life outside of a single occupant vehicle? While I try to restrict this blog's content to my commentary on relevant stories, I am honestly furious with the Enquirer's inability to comprehensively cover transportation developments in the region. The only follow up to the recent article about the Union Station terminal came in the form of vitriolic user comments.

Sigh. Indeed, BuckeyeKey, this is just a lot more of the same.

So, there's a new bus in town. Posted by BuckeyeKev at 10/30/2008 8:26 PM EDT on Cincinnati.com

Just read over on the politcal blog that today marked the "new and improved," agreement between the City and Hamilton County regarding SORTA / Metro. Does anybody really think that in this economic climate that there are extra funds in Butler, Warren, and Clermont County for a service that is already paid for mainly by the City and it's income tax? I haven't had a lot of time to reseach everything, but this sounds like more of the same - just in a new wrapper.

Thoughts?
