In our current news, Filipino citizens and politicians have been arguing if whether or not there is a transportation crisis in Metro Manila. Either way, it’s affecting everyone living in the Metro negatively bigtime. . . This year, me and a friend of mine, were priviledged and blessed to travel to Scotland for a business trip/knowledge transfer of a company for IT support for a week. We were privildeged to experience the daily grind of an IT consultant there traveling by train. Their train system runs through the very heart of Edinburgh and extends to the towns nearby. Each train station have their own parking lot where commuters can leave their vehicles and opt for the train to either the city or nearby areas. This kind of system not only lessens traffic but also dramatically removes cars from cities letting people walk or take regulated taxis or cars for hire such as Uber to take them to their offices. This setup also gives almost equal number of job opportunities in the city and other towns, minimizing congestion in the city. I think this is also the same in parts of France. . . Our government have been doing infrastructure projects to solve the traffic issues but I think, lessening the cars and having a more effective centralized transport system would help solve the issue. Anyway that’s just me. 🤣 . . This is me, enjoying the scenery while waiting for our train. 😄 And should I say, their schedules are really almost on time!!! 😱 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 📍Livingston North Station, Livingston, Edinburgh, Scotland 📸: Iphone XS - Moment Wide 18mm #jirehjournals . . . . . . . . . #momentlens #momenttravel #momentgear #momentcamera #momenttele #shotonmoment #traveldeeper #travelstoriesph #photooftheday #explore #instagood #FilipinoTravel #worldnomads #explorephmag #travelwriter #traveldeeper #photooftheday #explore #instagood #FilipinoTravel #worldnomads #travelstoke #passionpassport #stayandwander #grammerPH #iphone #iphonexs #Shotoniphone #iphonography
