Let’s make transit sexy: Moreau
Transport minister Pierre Moreau says transit needs to be more sexy, and he proposes ferry boats and cable cars to the South Shore. No, April Fool’s is not here yet.
Later: Thoughts on these ideas from Quel Avenir.

Cable cars sound fun!

I’ll take “less expensive” over sexy any day. While it’s true that it’s inexpensive if you get a monthly pass, it adds up very quickly if you’re an occasional pay-per-use rider.

Why are they wasting time with this? didnt they already perform a dozen studies to put an LRT on the champlain bridges’ estacade?

personally speaking, if busses and metros could run on time, they’d be sexy enough in my books :p

Blork, we’ve looked at that technology once or twice before on this blog (ant6n: “That’s just silly!”). But it would be fun, if not actually sexy.
mdblog: it was inevitable.
