“My son took the wrong bus home on his first day in high school, the bus driver changed the route to bring him right to our house.
Also, the HGV driver driving slow enough & alert enough to stop when 18M old daughter darted into the road. My heroes forever.”

Start of the new tram today in Liège, Belgium
This week I did a point to point running race and organised to get back to the start by public transport. (Most people arrange to have a friend drive and collect them.) The train ride back to the start was very scenic and relaxing.
#BanCars "The single biggest reason by far [for no-show buses], accounting for 89 percent of these non-deductible lost kilometres, was 'abnormal congestion.' Traffic.
"When a bus gets behind schedule and because of traffic congestion, one strategy the operators use is to skip some or all of the rest of the stops on the route to get back on time."

The Bee Network appears to have cut some of the bus services fifteen hours early (we're not to have any public transport in these parts tomorrow). The hour long bus journey home from Sale Moor took three buses, a couple of ten-minute walks and over two and a quarter hours. The bus information provided online by the Bee Network was, as so often, spectacularly useless.
#transitous is also a very cool #opensource map and route planning tool for #publictransport.
