Happy of course, but I don't want to be too happy. You know that I will eventually leave this city. I don't want any feeling of longing to this city except my grandparents' house and land. Nothing more than that. My life can't develop well in this city.

All sustainable cities need integrated, adequate and affordable public transportation. Even though at the time I posted this post there were only two bus routes, that is quite a progress because previously this city does not have good public transportation at all.

This bus system is a collaboration between the Indonesian Ministry of Transportation and the Government of Manado City. It was launched on 19 November, 2026. There wouldn't be this service if the mayor of this city at that time wasn't smart and I thanked him personally for this.

It's been a long time since I've taken a bus. So this is me on the "Trans Manado" city bus, the first bus rapid transit system in Manado City. Honestly, I was really helped by this and it must be said that this is one of the best city government policies in years

Oh, and of course, I knew once #AmazonCorp announced plans to build a warehouse in #GorhamME, the #GorhamConnector would rear its ugly head again... And even though #JanetMills' brother #PeterMills is no longer in charge of #MDOT doesn't mean the new director won't be pushing this... Instead of a light rail system or rapid bus transit on the existing roads (and / or safer bike lanes. I knew friends who used to bike from Gorham to Portland, but it got too dangerous because of a lack of dedicated bike lanes and speeders).

#MDOT will launch new examination of traffic issues west of Portland

The state study will focus on Gorham, #ScarboroughME, #SouthPortlandME and #WestbrookME.

Robert Lowell, April 22, 2026

Excerpt: "The announcement of the new study comes just days before Amazon goes to the Gorham Planning Board on May 4, seeking approval for a warehouse and distribution center on Main Street (Route 25). Traffic will likely be one issue fueling concerns about the Amazon project.

"The study also comes in the aftermath of plans the Maine Turnpike Authority shelved last year for a four-lane toll road connector to Gorham. The connector was aimed at reducing commuter rush-hour traffic in the routes 22 and 114 commuter corridor [which the #Maine Legislature failed to make go away!]

"A connector would have linked the roundabout at South Street (Route 114) and the southerly end of Gorham’s Bernard Rines Bypass with the turnpike’s Exit 45 in South Portland. The connector proposal was met with a public outcry because it called for cutting a swath through #SmilingHillFarm in #WestbrookME."
