Taxi 07: Roads Forward, the latest component of our Taxi 07 project, was released this week to some great press–see below. Think of it as a 160-page crash course on taxi system functionality, finance, and organization. The book is packed with statistics and facts, but like a good course the material is made far more interesting by the conversation it spurns. Our expert fellows charted a course in Roads Forward full of precocious ideas to see what can happen next. Are you on board? And what, may we ask, do you know about taxis? A+ content, clever illustrations, clean infographics, and photos from the industry behind-the-scenes are worth the free 30-second download.
