Hello to All:

Joe said in his last post, "but they more than likely get paid for the advertisement".

They meaning Star Metro and by paid advertising you mean us?

I got the impression with all the meetings I went to that Star Metro would need to inform its riders and the general public that Star metro would be taking it to the main streets so to speak. Star Metro would need to inform the car and truck driving public to be aware of areas of town where the transfer points will be. So why not have city transit mention the white cane law in their publications along with being courteous an aware of bus riders crossing at transfer points?

Yes, but they more than likely get paid for the advertisement. That is
suppose to go to the bus line transit I sure. Just my thoughts.

this seems like another opportunity for an email campaign; to Mr.
Garrison and the city commissioners again.

They're always putting advertising of various types on the buses, both
inside and out, they could at least work with that.  if they have plans
for a public awareness campaign for Nova 2010, suggesting some tie-in
language to get them from that onto the subject of the white cane law
would probably be helpful to them.
