B GET ОN YOUR BIKE
If you go to Paris, don't be surprised if you see a lot of people riding grey bikes with metal baskets on the front up the Champs Elysees! Since summer 2007 there have been thousands of bikes available to rent on the streets of Paris. The idea is simple - you buy a cheap pass for a day or a week, pick up a bike from one of 750 'docking stations', ride it to your destination and then put it back at another docking station. Now traffic is down, noise is down, pollution is down, parking is much easier and everyone from tourists to businessmen in suits get around the city on two wheels!
C River Taxis
The authorities in Jakarta, Indonesia, have come up with the clever idea of making use of the city's network of rivers and canals for a new form of public transport -river taxis! As there are also markets along some of the rivers, you can hop off and do a little shopping on the way! The authorities hope this service will ease Jakarta's terrible traffic problem as there are about 5 million vehicles on the city's streets, growing about 10% yearly.
