Authors Darrin Nordahl and Jarrett Walker discuss public transit from two different ends of the bus route: technical simplicity—and fun. Walker, author of Human Transit, believes that transit can be simple if we focus on the underlying geometry that all transit technologies share. Nordahl, author of My Kind of Transit, argues that when public transit is an enjoyable experience, tourists and commuters alike will willingly hand in their keys. The discussion is moderated by Rob Johnson of Transportation Choices and presented as part of the From Island Press series at Seattle Town Hall.
