In this week's edition of "Shooting the Bull," Durham Area Transit Authority head Steve Mancuso joins Barry and Kevin for the second of a two-part series looking at transit and transportation in the Bull City. We talk about DATA service in the Bull City, including the new downtown/Duke circulator, the new Durham Station opening this winter, and his perspectives on how to make Durham more transit-friendly. Plus, Barry and Kevin talk about a great honor for the Nasher's Sarah Schroth and about this weekend's happenings in the Bull City.

Kevin & Barry, this was a wonderful interview.
The new circulator is good news for downtown, Brightleaf, Ninth Street and Duke.
Folks, if you haven't had a chance to listen, Steve talks about plans to start a free shuttle service connecting Duke and downtown when the new bus station opens in early 2009. The service will run shuttles every 10 minutes.
Encourage you to take a listen.
