...trading in 15 European countries. In 1960 the company – still called Cowie – moved into motor retailing. And in 1980 it started to purchase bus companies with the acquisition of the Grey-Green bus company in London. Over the next few years, there were more bus company acquisitions, with the biggest – British Bus Group plc – in 1996 making the business one of the largest bus operators in the UK. Arriva was born in 1997, bringing together many different company backgrounds under the Arriva flag. Also in that year Arriva acquired its first business on the European mainland – Unibus Holdings in Denmark. In 1999 Arriva decided to focus its management and financial resources to enable the group to capitalise on opportunities in passenger transportation in the UK and mainland Europe. Subsequently the group successfully disposed of a number of major motor retailing and finance businesses. This process was completed by the summer of 2003 and the sale of its vehicle rental division followed in 2006. During that time Arriva has established a position as one of the leading transport services organisations in Europe with bus and train operations in the UK, Czech Republic, Denmark, the Netherlands, Poland and Sweden. In addition Arriva has bus operations in Hungary, Italy, Portugal, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Spain. In the UK, Arriva also operates a bus and coach distribution business and a specialist transport business which provides health and social transport services. In 2010, Arriva...

...They cannot afford and have no use for the expensive downtown restaurants or the museums adjacent to the train tracks. The only major resources truly available that were visible during the scavenger hunt were places of worship, one hospital, and one park. What they need is grocery stores, free clinics, and parks. Unfortunately, these types of installations are the furthest away from the light rail route. Instead, people who are often living paycheck to paycheck are given easy access to liquor stores and convenience stores with nothing but alcohol, cigarettes, and junk food. The few items in convenience stores that offer some type of nutritional value like milk, cheese, bread, eggs, and pasta are offered at a ridiculous markup. It has also been shown that both tobacco and alcohol companies target low-income communities which only further entrenches the cycle of generational poverty. It, therefore, makes sense to have seen so many liquor stores and convenience stores with cigarette advertisements in the neighborhoods. What these communities would benefit more from in terms of public transportation are bus routes. While the speed is slower there are more frequent stops and variety in routes could allow people to get closer grocery...

...Introduction Do you still remember the time when you were waiting your mother for looking for a telephone number in her cumbersome contact book? After hardly finding the personal, poor handing writing became another challenge for her, as she had to guess what she actually wrote down. Back to the age when email was not popular, when computer or the Internet was hardly accessed, communication within distant people mainly relied on massive posts. You may not realize, information management was done in both cases as a personal was trying to organize information in a deliverable manner to others or his/herself. The term “information management” may be quite unfamiliar to general public. People would think that it might be related to computer science and information technology, which are newly brought out in this century. By the Dr. T.D. Wilson (University of Sheffield), information management refers to how information is acquired, organized, controlled and disseminated (Wilson). Indeed, information management has long been existed and “living” with us. Experts have different comments on Information management models. Some said models are typically wrong in nature but somehow useful (Box & Draper 1987). To summarise the features of IM model, it could be the representation of structure or diagnostic tool (HKU). This essay introduces four information management models and how they are involved in daily life. Each model would be illustrated with certain examples to let readers...

Lessons in what not to do can often be found in cities, where most officials, overwhelmed by a flood of problems, try to cope by naming and solving them one at a time. If they are faced with congestion, their answer is to widen streets and build bypasses and parking garages. Crime? Lock up the offenders. Smog? Regulate emissions. Illiteracy? Toughen standards. Litter? Raise fines. Homelessness? Build shelters, and if that seems to fail, jail the loiterers. Insufficient budget to fund all these competing priorities? Raise taxes or impose sacrificial austerity, to taste. Disaffected voters? Blame political enemies. Sometimes single-problem, single-solution approaches do work, but often, as previously described, optimizing one element in isolation pessimizes the entire system. Hidden connections that have not been recognized and turned to advantage will eventually tend to create disadvantage. Consider what happened in Borneo in the s. Many Dayak villagers had malaria, and the World Health Organization had a solution that was simple and direct. Spraying DDT seemed...

...www.vtpi.org Info@vtpi.org 250-360-1560 Transit Price Elasticities and Cross-Elasticities 25 May 2012 Todd Litman Victoria Transport Policy Institute Abstract This paper summarizes price elasticities and cross elasticities for use in public transit planning. It describes how elasticities are used, and summarizes previous research on transit elasticities. Commonly used transit elasticity values are largely based on studies of short- and medium-run impacts performed decades ago when real incomes where lower and a larger portion of the population was transit dependent. As a result, they tend to be lower than appropriate to model long-run impacts. Analysis based on these elasticity values tends to understate the potential of transit fare reductions and service improvements to reduce problems such as traffic congestion and vehicle pollution, and understate the long-term negative impacts that fare increases and service cuts will have on transit ridership, transit revenue, traffic congestion and pollution emissions. Originally published as “Transit Price Elasticities and Cross-Elasticities,” Journal of Public Transportation, Vol. 7, No. 2, (www.nctr.usf.edu/jpt/pdf/JPT 7-2 Litman.pdf), 2004, pp. 37-58.

...What we have learned from developed cities abroad: An efficient infrastructure facilitates delivery of information, goods and services, supports economic growth and assists is achieving social objectives such as raising the living standards and educational levels * Encourage more compact development The best example would have to be Singapore, where they made public spaces work harder and developed affordable mixed-use neighborhoods. Singapore also relieved density by adding a variety of green boundaries around neighborhoods. With compact development, it becomes possible to achieve sustainability on a national level because it allows neighborhoods and employment centers concentration of population and employment, create a mix of uses, and encourage pedestrian-, bicycle-, and transit-friendly design. Moreover, this kind of development improves physical and social activities and prioritizes public spaces. * Singapore’s New Towns supported by Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system This plan constituted of construction of high-density housing estates called as New Town, which are connected by a Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system linking them to the central business district and the industrial estates. Apart from urban roads, the MRT lines are also served by three Light Rapid Transit (LRT) systems, which act as feeders. * Singapore’s Green Plan This is a government blueprint addressing the challenges of Clean Air, Clean Water and Clean Land.
