»Understand your commute needs

I sometimes forget that Caltrain tries really hard to "to get people out of their cars and onto the trains." After the bad bicycle-related publicity of the past few months, they are undertaking a ridership survey to gauge what to do next:

Wish list: Increase the bicycle capacity on baby bullets; promote conductor and rider awareness of the bicycle car; preserve the older rolling-stock bike-car layout, rather than the new ("Baby Bullet") rolling stock, which forces cyclists to move the bicycle through the passenger area; move the low-rise access platforms at bullet-train stations, which impede bicycle and passenger flow through the loading area (keep them at one end of the station, or in an area with an ample footpad; the Palo Alto NB platform is a textbook example of what NOT to do); provide more bicycle capacity during peak hours Use your own URL -- a redirect requires minimal effort and maintains a professional look! -- for the survey.
