Chip and Robert,

 

I followed your conversation last night on the TABI listserv concerning
StarMetro. I have some updates for you.

 

1.       Bing Maps is Microsoft's version on GoogleTransit. Since it
uses the same GTFS feed, the data would be the same. Here is the link
http://www.bing.com/maps It is working right now if you want to check it
out and beta test it for us. We do need to send them the latest feed to
reflect the recent changes.

2.       I did not know our trip planner had accessibility issues. How
can I tell and how do we fix it? 

3.       We are moving towards a system of smaller 'SuperStops'. If the
Sales Tax Referendum is approved, we are receiving funds to construct
them. Right now, the plan is for three but the case could be made for up
to 5. 

 

If you have any questions or want to know more about what we are doing,
feel free to email me directly.
