Alaska Railroad tells House committee it is financially self‑sustaining, outlines major capital projects and readiness to support Alaska LNG Alaska Railroad leaders told the House Transportation Committee the railroad operates as a self‑sustaining public corporation, outlined capital programs (track, bridges, Seward passenger dock), pending federal grants and bond tools, and said the railroad is prepared to support Alaska LNG logistics once the developer issues a final investment decision.

The Alaska Railroad is not just a lifeline for transportation but a self-sustaining powerhouse ready to tackle major infrastructure projects and support new energy initiatives!

Lawmakers press PennDOT on transit funding and a looming shared-ride cliff At an appropriations hearing, PennDOT said a proposed 1.75% sales-tax carve-out would generate roughly $300 million annually for transit; agency officials warned the shared-ride program (about 4.9 million rides in FY24/25) faces affordability pressures and will need increased state support or a new reimbursement model.

Lawmakers are sounding the alarm on Pennsylvania’s transit funding, warning that without a new sales-tax carve-out, millions of rides may be at risk.

Proposed bill would require new drivers 21 and under to take driver's ed before getting a license A new bill could require Minnesotans under 21 to complete driver's education before they can obtain a license.

Chris Williams, youth hockey coach, doesn't disagree with mandated #DriversEd for >21yo in #MN, but he has better idea: "Give out a lot of Bus Passes & improve #PublicTransportation I think you'd have a lot fewer drivers on the road" kstp.com/kstp-news/to... YES CHRIS!!!

Charlottesville budget strains: transit staffing, collective bargaining and school requests drive revenue choices Staff told the council that transit expansions, collective‑bargaining costs and school funding increases are primary drivers behind the FY2027 shortfall; transit needs alone require new drivers and roughly $6.1 million in city share first‑year funding.

Charlottesville faces a looming revenue shortfall driven by rising transit, labor costs, and school funding that could reshape the city's financial future.

The image is a black and white photograph capturing a classic Parisian street scene. The focal point is a distinct Art Nouveau style métro entrance, designed by Hector Guimard, with the iconic "METROPOLITAIN" sign prominently displayed at the top. Below this, a large display board shows a map of the Paris Metro system, with the station name "Alexandre Dumas" and the line number "2" clearly visible.

Surrounding the entrance, several elements contribute to the urban atmosphere. In the foreground, a row of bicycles are parked, leaning against a decorative metal railing that frames the Metro station. These bicycles vary in design, adding a touch of everyday life to the scene. The railing itself is ornate, featuring intricate scrollwork and organic shapes characteristic of the Art Nouveau period.

Behind the Metro entrance and bicycles, a lush canopy of trees forms a natural backdrop, their leaves creating a textured pattern against the sky. The overall impression is one of dappled light and shadow, typical of a sunny day.

In the mid-ground and background, hints of city life are visible. Traffic signals, street signs, and vehicles like cars are present, suggesting a functioning urban environment. A few people are also visible, some standing near the Metro entrance, and one couple is seated on a bench to the right of the station, observing the scene or resting. Their attire is casual and contemporary.

The composition is balanced, with the Metro entrance acting as a central anchor. The diagonal lines created by the street and the railing lead the viewer's eye through the image. The black and white processing lends a timeless quality to the photograph, emphasizing textures, contrasts, and the architectural details of the Metro station. The image evokes a sense of Parisian charm and the enduring presence of its historic public transportation system.

Microtransit options return to commission; staff cautions on costs and wait times Commissioners revisited microtransit options such as Freebee and voucher-based Uber. Staff cautioned these services carry recurring costs and reported long wait times in peer cities; the commission asked for more analysis and to weigh improvements to fixed-route shuttles against on-demand services.

Sunny Isles Beach is weighing the pros and cons of on-demand microtransit versus traditional shuttle services, with officials warning about costs and long wait times.

Valley Regional Transit urges Nampa and Caldwell to hold baseline funding as ridership rises Valley Regional Transit told a joint Nampa–Caldwell workshop that ridership in Canyon County is up, service reliability improved after recent route changes and that cities should maintain baseline local contributions while VRT pursues stable, voter‑approved funding.

Valley Regional Transit is seeing a 17% increase in ridership thanks to recent service redesigns, but local funding is crucial for sustained growth.

It just annoys me that the implied basis of this story is that there are no other options than air or road/car.

Even though a railway has gone through Castlegar for over 100 years and there also used to be regular Greyhound bus service up until about 20 years ago.

L'image montre une vue floue de l'intérieur d'une rame de métro en mouvement, traversant une station. Ce cliché expérimental a été pris sur RATP ligne 4 à la station Les Halles (75001 Paris). Depuis le 16 décembre 2023, la ligne 4 du métro est entièrement automatisée et sans conducteur ; c'est l'une des trois lignes entièrement automatisées de Paris.

La scène est caractérisée par un flou de mouvement extrême, donnant une impression de grande vitesse et créant des traînées lumineuses. Les parois du tunnel semblent être en béton, à la texture rugueuse, et sont éclairées par l'éclairage interne du métro et peut-être par des sources lumineuses externes plus loin dans le tunnel.

À gauche du cadre, on aperçoit une portion d'un autre métro, avec des lumières blanches et rouges floues. À droite, le quai est visible, avec des traînées lumineuses brillantes et allongées, suggérant la présence d'autres luminaires. Entre ces deux éléments, les voies ferrées se dessinent au loin. Elles sont d'un gris foncé et sont également floues.

Les couleurs dominantes sont des gris et des noirs sourds, provenant du tunnel et des voies, contrastant avec les traînées de lumière blanche éclatante et quelques subtiles touches de rouge et de vert, dues aux feux de signalisation au fond du tunnel. On distingue également des zones de lumière diffuse, peut-être bleutée ou verdâtre, se reflétant sur les surfaces.

La composition se caractérise par une forte impression de profondeur et de mouvement vers l'avant.  Le point de fuite se situe au bout du tunnel, où l'on aperçoit quelques lumières au loin, dont ce qui semble être des feux de signalisation (un rouge, un vert). L'impression générale est celle d'un mouvement dynamique et de l'environnement clos et artificiel d'un tunnel de métro ou de train. Le flou extrême accentue la vitesse du déplacement plutôt que les détails statiques du décor.
