How do you feel when you get to the bus stop? You say to yourself, “Where is this bus? When will it be here? Why am I standing so close to huge metal-box cars flying past me at the speed of light? Where is the shade?”
Or how about the subway platform? “Is the next-train-arrival screen correct? Am I going to make it in time for my meeting? Why didn’t I charge my phone a little more?”
Well, the folks at ioby – “a movement of everyday people” – say it doesn’t have to be this way. They say we can make our transit stops better places and transform them into a fun part of our days.
It’s a simple idea really. Work with your neighbors to make your neighborhoods, and your neighborhood amenities such as transit stops, more beautiful and welcoming places.
