Think about this… The Coyotes might be getting a shiny new home located at […]

November 10, 2016 by Nick Bastian Leave a Comment

After the train wreck that has been the Banta saga, Valley Metro has decided to remove the interim label and keep Scott Smith as their CEO.

Scottsdale Continues To Show “Lite Rail” Ignorance

April 14, 2016 by Nick Bastian 3 Comments

February 9, 2016 by Nick Bastian 2 Comments

It’s nice to see that more information about the Tempe Streetcar is coming out. For years, we’ve had this seemingly “on again, off again” thing going on with the project.
