The Mechanics of Transportation
How can I get drivers to slow down in my neighborhood? What’s Vision Zero all about? Why does it take so long to get a sidewalk/bike lane or a reduced speed limit approved? Welcome to the Mechanics of Transportation – a podcast that will answer these questions as well as introduce you to people who you may want to share a bike ride, bus ride or walk with.

Zero Fare Up in the Air
On this episode of the Mechanics of Transportation, we listen to this informal meeting that featured staff from RVA Rapid Transit, the Greater Richmond Transit Company, (GRTC) and the public about the impact that Zero Fare has made on residents, how it increased ridership and how if it goes away, could be detrimental to the city.
