BUS LANES * Ireland - Dublin operating hours extension proposed hotels in chennai india
Dublin,Ireland -Busrage -18 June 2005: -- Dublin City Council, who are now very keen to appear active on the transport front in our fair city, are talking about extending bus lane operating hours from 7pm to 8pm... They are also talking about making the lanes active on Sundays in cases where they are not currently.. We love the idea, but why stop there? Why not make them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - with services using them to boot?... Oddly enough, a poster on boards.ie suggests that the plan will not be put into practice. Why? Because “they didn’t have enough information on traffic levels at 8pm”. We can thank our lucky stars that these muppets won’t be on the Dublin Transport Authority then...

EXCHANGE * India - Malaysian firm offers A/C buses for PMPML ad rights hotels in chennai
Pune,India -The Times of India -11 Jun 2008: -- Authorities of the Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML) are delighted about an offer received from a Malaysian firm which has agreed to provide 2,500 air-conditioned buses as “royalty'' to the PMPML in exchange of advertisement rights for a period of 15 years... The proposal by the firm, Landmark Media, will be placed before the board of directors next week, PMPML chairman and managing director Subbrao Patil said on Tuesday...

* New diesel rules: School districts had plenty of time to prepare
Sacramento,CA,USA -The Capitol Weekly -June 19, 2008: -- ... California’s children are the real victims of poor air quality. Nearly 1 in 10 California children suffers from asthma compared to 1 in 20 nationally. In the San Joaquin Valley, 1 in 6 youngsters have problems with this respiratory disease. Since 1980, the national asthma death rates among children under 20 years of age have increased by nearly 80 percent, and California asthma death rates have contributed more than its share to this dramatic rise... Because improving children’s health is such a high priority, the voters approved $200 million in state bond funding (1B transportation infrastructure funds) to help school districts to retrofit and replace older buses ahead of state mandates. School districts should take advantage of this funding to get the earliest protection for children and mitigate the financial impacts of the regulation. Replacing and retrofitting school buses should be a high priority for children’s health protection in every school district...Now is not the time to delay protections from diesel pollution from school buses in a state where we have the worst air pollution in the country. Voters want our schools to clean up school buses. Parents want cleaner school buses. And school personnel, who are charged with stewardship of children, are obligated to protect them from the most toxic air contaminant in our environment...
