About 60 billion passenger journeys were made by public transport in 2008 in the EU-27. This figure refers to local public transport, including urban, suburban and regional public transport services. Considering the total EU population, this represents about 120 public transport journeys per inhabitant per year. Demand for public transport is not distributed evenly across the European territory. For instance, in the medium and large sized cities included in the Mobility in Cities Database, the number of public transport journeys was about 300 per inhabitant per year.
This blog was really designed for me and others in the interwebs to vent their grievances. Yes there is twitter, and facebook and formspring... and even god forbid myspace.But this blog comes with fun facts!

Late Public Transport
Wherever you are in the world, whether it be bus train tram or even a tuk tuk no one likes standing out in the elements waiting for that train or bus that should've arrived 4 minutes ago. Public transport grievances have been staple conversations for many generation and continues to be one of the many things that we can neither live with nor without.
