**:bus: NEW PODCAST ALERT: _Transit by Design_ with Nicolas Reid! :bus:** Hey everyone! We just dropped a must-listen People and Projects episode of The Streets and People podcast with Nicolas Reid, author of _Transit by Design_. Nicolas shares practical, no-nonsense advice on how to plan public transport that actually works for Queensland communities. **Why you’ll love this episode:** - **Buses \> big projects** : Learn why buses are the real game-changers for transport networks. - **Safe streets = better transport** : How footpaths, crossings, and bike access make a difference to ridership. - **Avoid the hype** : Why we need to focus on _outcomes_ (like frequency and reliability) over flashy infrastructure. **🎧 Give it a listen** on [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/episode/5BgR8WkjuAMIAJFj3QQZsH?si=e3092b567d034608) More details on our website: [Nicolas Reid on Designing Better Public Transport](https://getaroundcaboolture.au/public-transport-design/) **Let’s chat!** - What’s _one thing_ you’d improve about public transport in your area? - Have you seen any great (or not-so-great) examples of transport design in QLD?
