It’s a been a banner first season on the Mechanics of Transportation, from being a sparkle of an idea to keep my foot in the transportation world after getting let go from a job at a public radio station as a transportation reporter, to producing 17 episodes in which I got to nerd out with people about infrastructure, biking and gaining listeners in Europe, it’s been a fun ride.

So as the year winds down, I’m taking snippets from the interviews you may have missed and putting them here into bit size nuggets for you to consume over the next few weeks.

We’ll start off with a mostly Richmond, Va special, starting with Henry Bendon–the now the former Communication liaison for the Greater Richmond Transit Company–he’s off having new adventures in Seattle; moving on Faith Walker of RVA Rapid Transit to Chet Parsons the head honcho at PlanRVA and the Central Virginia Transportation Authority; to Andy Boenau, a transportation expert.

Speaking of checking things out, if you like world music and other tunes, be sure to check out my weekly streaming show called Ian’s World O’ Music, found on MixCloud. For 17 years, I had a two-hour, weekly show on a public radio station, so I know how to groove.
