The bus rapid transit blog entry is making me go back to my October photos, and upload them. (I have thousands of photos to upload to Flickr...) Yesterday, while traveling and looking at maps at a particularly well appointed truck stop in North Carolina, and thinking about the midtown Manhattan map we bought last weekend, that there is a difference in orientation between creating maps for drivers and creating maps for pedestrians. Of course, this wayfinding map sign makes the distinction pretty clear as well.
