New Fall Metro Motion on Metro.net

Metro's web site, metro.net, has launched the Fall 2008 Metro Motion cable television show on Metro Interactive, the metro.net video page. Metro Motion is a half-hour news show featuring a variety of entertaining and informative transportation news and feature stories. It runs quarterly on cable stations throughout Los Angeles County.

The new show celebrates passage of Measure R, the half cent sales tax for transportation in Los Angeles County. It explores how Metro can help customers find the perfect gift -- even on a tight holiday budget. It explains the origins of Metro's special late-night service for holiday revelers. It examines folding bikes as the perfect holiday gift for Metro customers. And with more and more commuters biking to Metro stations, Metro Motion takes a look at good safety habits that will make the ride go smoothly … and safely.

Metro Interactive also is home to videos from the Go Metro campaign, as well as live chats with Metro Board members and staff and comments from riders in the Transit Takes feature.

To access the Metro Motion show, go to multimedia.metro.net and click on the Metro on TV icon at the top of the page.
