Common Resource
Based in the environment of Metro Phoenix, public transportation is configured to affect the interactions between transportation, transportation users, infrastructure providers and infrastructure. Public transportation will only succeed if transportation matches the needs of riders. The creation of collective-choice arrangements such as vanpools and the online carpool-matching system will be a good fit for Phoenix. Monitoring its use will keep transportation in needed areas, and observing transportation-use patterns will keep the system running smoothly. "Nested units" (concerned citizens) will continue to guarantee that needed ideas (such as neighborhood circulators) continue to help connect neighborhoods to main routes.

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or resource:
“The last Night that She lived
It was a Common Night
Except the Dying—this to Us
Made Nature different”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“Helping children at a level of genuine intellectual inquiry takes imagination on the part of the adult. Even more, it takes the courage to become a resource in unfamiliar areas of knowledge and in ones for which one has no taste. But parents, no less than teachers, must respect a child’s mind and not exploit it for their own vanity or ambition, or to soothe their own anxiety.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
