Steven and AzariMan,
As a student writing a business proposal(for business writing class) to try to solve the issues with the bus system here at my university, I am finding this site very useful. In an effort to write a report and gather better information i was wondering if i is possible for you to help me out or point me in the right direction. I am definitely going to use this as my model of success, but i really need information like: how much this costs per mile approximately, what company would be able to construct a three line system with two or three stops on each line, what the cost of running these lines would be like, how Eco-freindly they are or are not even. I am a freshman and this a junior level class so I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed, any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks for the excellent work you have already done. Warm regards, Dan.
