Hooray! The #PeakDistrict has been given government approval (and funding) for a trial run of public transport with regular, frequent, and connecting schedules inspired by Switzerland.

Even urban public transport in the UK is bad at connections. In the past, buses in the Peak District have been labelled as "connecting" with an hour's wait, no bench or shelter. This could be fantastic.

Almost 50 French cities have free public transport. What can Australia learn?

There are growing calls in Australia for free public transport amid the Iran war with two states putting in place free services on a temporary basis. But in France, almost 50 cities have free public transport.

I would pay 25% more for all public transit if that funded people whose only job was to verbally shame the public into behaving. Speakerphone infractions of course, but also basic shit like getting stepping the fuck out of the way of train doors while people are trying to get out. Looking at you, literally every dipshit on the JFK airTrain.
