After gorging on Easter chocolate the Smart Move team is finally back with the April newsletter for the latest bus and coach news around the world. This month, you will discover that the people of Tallinn, Estonia, are voting for free public transport, coaches came to the rescue of stranded airlines passengers in Romania, the Philippines is investing in Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), and New Zealand inaugurated "dragon buses" to celebrate Chinese New Year. You will also read about the smart phone app that lets U.S. bus passengers check the safety performance of a bus/coach company before they book a ticket and a travel planning app in the Basque region of Spain with potential for worldwide use.
We would also like to take this opportunity to welcome our new media partner based in Israel, the magazine Olam Ha’autobusim - Bus World in Hebrew - and our new industry partner, the New Zealand Bus & Coach Association, both of which will help promote the Smart Move message.
