“The MTA’s new Select Bus Service offers street-based payment kiosks (1 in the image above), low-riding rear entrances for quicker boarding (2), a “signal prioritization” system that will hold the light green for fast buses (3), and a separate terra cotta-colored lane with constant camera surveillance to keep stray cars and trucks out of the way (4).” (via Engadget)
This really is awesome. The city is evolving right before our eyes. This might even change the way I get to work. A fast bus up 1st avenue to 37th street and a 10 minute walk west would be better than the stinky F train.
