| Comment | Im happy to see more cycle routes. Making it easier for folk to get around without the need of a car (in my uneducated opinion) has got to be easier than target car owners directly to reduce traffic.
Our infrastructure in general is pretty poor. I'm a 40 min walk to george square, not super central but I still cant get better than like 150mbps internet. I lived in the arse end of Madrid and had fibre optic into the flat. Although they do have loads of wires hanging over streets etc so no need to dig up roads.
In the few major EU cities I've been to you can buy one public transport ticket and use it on all public transport: train, tram, bus, metro.
You buy a 24hr public transport ticket and it literally lasts all day. I don't even know if it is possible to buy an "All Day" and use it for 23hrs lol.
I will say though that our general niceness here far outstrips anywhere I've been. Maybe I was just unlucky and met all the arseholes everywhere else but you can pretty much stop and ask anyone here for help and they'll do their best to help you. Same for the most part in shops and on the phone.
You don't tend to get that in the places I've been. Or maybe I just remember the bad ones more lol. |
