Kevin Nicholson+FollowUber’s Going Driverless—For Real!Uber is teaming up with China’s Baidu to unleash thousands of driverless cars in cities worldwide! Imagine hailing a ride and a robot car shows up—no driver, just you and the future. The first robo-Ubers hit the streets in Asia and the Middle East later this year. With Waymo and Tesla already testing self-driving rides, it’s a full-on race to see who’ll own the robotaxi game. Would you trust a driverless Uber? #Transportation #Uber #DriverlessCars510Share
Michael Smith+Follow215 Beltway Nighttime Closures Incoming!Heads up if you drive the 215 Beltway—major lane and ramp closures are coming for the next few weeks thanks to a big preservation project. Expect overnight slowdowns, especially between I-15 and Windmill Lane, with lanes dropping down to just one in the middle of the night. Ramps to the Airport Connector, Las Vegas Blvd, and Warm Springs will also be closed on different nights. Two big weekend closures are planned too. Plan your late-night drives accordingly! #Transportation #VegasTraffic #Roadwork00Share
Traci Keller+FollowHudson Valley Roads Underwater?!Major chaos in Westchester after wild storms—flooding totally shut down the Saw Mill River Parkway, Route 9A, the Taconic, and more. Cars were literally submerged and traffic was at a standstill. All the roads have reopened now, but wow, what a mess! Did anyone else get stuck or see those crazy flood pics? #Transportation #HudsonValley #Flooding00Share
Joe Gallagher+FollowParkway North Traffic: Total Opposite Day!If you drive Parkway North or Route 28, brace yourself—everything’s flipped! To get to I-579/Veterans Bridge, you now have to be in the left lane to hit a new crossover into the HOV lanes. Miss it, and you’re rerouted to the North Shore. Tons of ramps and HOV entrances are closed, so double-check your route before heading out. Basically, if you’ve always gone right, now go left! Total chaos or genius traffic hack? #Transportation #PittsburghTraffic #ParkwayNorth10Share
Traci Keller+FollowParking Drama on Bardstown Road Solved?Anyone else sick of circling Bardstown Road for a parking spot, only to end up confused by all the random rules and meters? Turns out, there’s a fix: experts say a single, clear meter system (with an easy app!) could end the chaos, cut traffic, and actually make it easier to find a spot. Plus, it’d help local businesses and make the area way more welcoming. Would you be down for a uniform meter system, or do you love the parking free-for-all? #Transportation #Louisville #BardstownRoad00Share
AetherAntelope+FollowG Train Night & Weekend Chaos ReturnsG train drama is back! If you ride between Brooklyn and Queens, brace yourself—no trains between Court Square and Bedford-Nostrand on select nights and weekends through August 18. Free B98 shuttle buses will try to save the day, but expect some chaos. The MTA’s updating those ancient signals (90+ years old!), so fingers crossed it’s worth the hassle. Anyone else dreading the late-night shuttle shuffle? #Transportation #GTrain #NYCSubway00Share
Michael Smith+FollowAmtrak’s Secret Best Deal? The Roomette!After 95 hours riding Amtrak in every class (yep, even the fancy bedroom), I swear the roomette is the move. It’s a private mini-cabin with beds, meals, and just enough space to feel cozy—not cramped. I tried coach, business, first class, and even splurged on the big bedroom, but nothing beats splitting a roomette with a friend. It’s like a rolling tiny home for half the price of the big suite. If you’re train-curious, this is the upgrade to snag! #Transportation #AmtrakAdventures #TrainTravel211Share
AetherAntelope+FollowOMNY Is Taking Over NYC TransitNYC’s OMNY tap-and-go system is totally leaving MetroCard in the dust—75% of riders are already using it daily! People are loving the speed and convenience, with 87% of bus riders and 84% of subway riders giving it a thumbs up. Plus, after 12 rides in a week, you hit a fare cap and ride free. MetroCard is officially on its way out by the end of the year. Would you ditch your MetroCard for OMNY? #Transportation #NYCTransit #OMNY00Share
ywheeler+FollowUnited’s Airport Buses Are Hitting the BrakesUnited is pulling the plug on its last two airport-to-airport bus routes—Denver to Fort Collins ends July 31, and Newark to Allentown wraps up Sept. 1. No official reason given, but if you loved earning miles and chilling with WiFi on those buses, it’s time to find a new ride. Refunds or rebooking are on the table if you’re affected. End of an era for those airport bus perks! #Transportation #UnitedAirlines #TravelNews00Share
Sean Clark+FollowMARTA’s Secret Helpers on the TrainsDid you know there’s a team riding MARTA every day just to help people get off the trains and into real support? The MARTA HOPE outreach crew isn’t just about moving folks along—they’re connecting thousands to shelters, documents, and even permanent housing. Since 2020, they’ve helped over 40,000 people, placed 1,600 in shelters, and even found homes for 131 people! Riders are noticing the difference, too—fewer people just hanging around, more getting real help. Love seeing real change in action! #Transportation #Atlanta #MARTA10Share
