As we recall the 20 year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, and while far less horrific than the human devastation, New Orleans’ 24 red streetcars serving the Canal & Riverfront lines were substantially damaged by the storm, all built & rebuilt in-house by NORTA staff.

New Orleans’ streetcars also a hurricane victim
The streetcars that traveled up and down St. Charles Avenue in New Orleans for the past 170 years and their shiny new red counterparts on Canal Street will be out of service for months, maybe a year o...

I cannot overstate the degree to which my ongoing and increasing difficulty with getting around using NORTA is unsustainable, nor the degree to which I feel completely unable to change the circumstances.

"Ken Bruce has gone completely mad"

Or

Wat was er verkeerd aan Norta of Ludo? Ok, alles behalve sexy. Wel betrouwbaar, niet duur, en geen poeha.

Pennsylvania Republicans seek to inflict the same amount of destruction on SEPTA that Hurricane Katrina did to NORTA.

When the results of your policies resemble those of a natural disaster, maybe don't be shocked when people scream at you every day for two months straight.

5) Buses! NORTA needs funding for better frequencies, because headways like every 80 minutes for the Airport Express and every 45 minutes on trunk lines in the city are just difficult. And JPT’s network looks really weird because *county boundaries don’t match urban development boundaries*

Unlike Baton Rouge, NOUPT is already an intermodal passenger facility, with Amtrak, Greyhound/Flix and NORTA all serving the station opened in 1954 (refurbished in 2005). In the 2nd photo, Amtrak counter is to the right and Greyhound/Flix to the left. There’s an arrivals listing but no departures.

El grinder, en el norta de Tenerife, apesta. Llevo una hora haciéndome una paja y no hay ni uno con el que me apetezca hacer algo. Prefiero matarme a pajas solo 😑
