That sounds like a promising idea for a lot of systems.<BR/><BR/>I don't know if it would be a good idea to have cell phone access on underground, just on principle. Do we want to hear the conversations strangers have with their friends?MHJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08039897634312460964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3223191135408802132.post-43688741326824881832009-02-17T12:34:00.000-05:002009-02-17T12:34:00.000-05:00Unplugging is nice, but I think the number one thi...Unplugging is nice, but I think the number one thing transit could do to boost ridership is "wire" their buses and trains. We're doing it in Austin. Too many people consider time spent on transit to be wasted time. Never mind the fact they don't have to drive a vehicle, they can do most anything they want to do. Providing wifi could be the incentive many need. Imagine being able to check your email and be on top of things before getting to the office? Or just having time to check your Facebook page or other time wasters that you ordinarily wouldn't have time for.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
