The gritty fluorescently lit underbelly of Chicago's elevated transit system draws me in.
I'm quite a big fan of gritty underbellies actually.
For me... this photograph defines "gritty underbelly" perfectly.
Great news for residents of District 7. The Vallecillo Road Project has received the funding necessary to start construction soon.
The City of Laredo Mayor, Pete Saenz, welcomed U.S. Congressman Henry Cuellar at City Hall Council Chambers to announce a $3 million earmark. These funds will be allocated to Webb County and the City of Laredo Regional Mobility Authority for the Vallecillo Road Project.
The overall project cost is $45.7 million; a roadway extended for 2.75 miles east-west, just a mile and a half north of IH 69W, an area known for its continuous industrial growth and development. The Vallecillo Road will connect IH 35 and FM 1472, alleviating daily transportation traffic.
Described as a unique public-private partnership, the Vallecillo Project will come to fruition thanks to the collaboration of various entities, including Jed Brown, Chairman of Webb County and City of Laredo Regional Mobility Authority; Cliffe Killam, President & CEO at Killam Development; State Representative Richard P. Raymond; State Senator Judith Zaffirini; and many others that came together in support of this project.

The very end of the 6 train. Considering how crowded it usually is, you shouldn't have any problem getting a seat if you get on a train from here...

This is a one way street with 2 areas of semicircular bike racks a few metres apart. However, to cycle north-eastwards just 25m incurs a detour of over 1km.
[Google Maps directions claim that you can cycle north-eastwards between the 2 but that is a mistake on their part; you would have to walk (that is why driving route is shown).]
[And we'll ignore the motorbike parked there shall we?]
In the 1800's a 3'6" gauge railway was built in what was thought to be seemingly impassable wilderness. It purpose was to carry copper from the mines in Queenstown, where smelters opened in 1897, to the port at Strahan. Due to the steep climbs a rack was laid and the 0-4-2 steam locomotives fitted with a cog driven by an extra two cylinders (based on a German patent which was already proven). In June 1962 the last through train ran between Queenstown (pictured above) and Strahan due to improvements to the road system.
In 1990, with funding from the federal government, the railway was relaid and a number of passenger carriages were built, as well as, the restoration of the present three steam locomotives. The completed station and turntable of the restored operation is pictured above.

Maintenance technician Dave Gooding adjusts a pulley in the Thames Water Fleet sewer, a Victorian sewer system designed by Joseph Bazalgette, beneath the streets of London March 13, 2013. After heavy rainfall, raw sewage gushes into the River Thames from a network of dank sewers beneath the streets of London. A Victorian-era problem that has never been fixed, the cobweb-laced tunnels just metres from a new railway station at Blackfriars underscore Britain's infrastructure backlog. The need for a new "super sewer" for Europe's financial capital was identified as far back as 1989 but privatised utility Thames Water, lacked government funding and had more pressing priorities such as cleaner drinking water.

About two weeks ago when the weather was really good I decided to get the Train out to Dun Laoghaire and I was pleasantly surprised by the recent improvements to the seafront area however many locals are not at all happy about the new library which is currently under construction. According to the local council “The Central Library & Cultural Centre currently under construction in Dun Laoghaire will further add to the County's infrastructure and will increase access to the arts for the general public. Specifically, the development includes: the Central Library, a multi purpose performance space with seating for 100 people, an art gallery, a Café, meeting rooms & reading rooms, office space and 100 car parking spaces. The estimated cost of the design, construction and supervision of the Central Library and Cultural Centre in Dun Laoghaire is €36.6m inclusive of Vat. The project is currently both on budget and on time. Suggestions of cost estimates of €60m are unfounded. It is expected that the Council will take the building in charge in April and that it will be open to the public in September.”
