[IMC-bristol] Re: thoughts from UWE

[Mike Tonks]

Fantastic - I'm glad you still have the files!

I think this is an excellent opportunity.  It was a mistake not to get 
the bus maps printed at the time, and I'd love to see them in print.

A first run of 15-30 would be great - then we can see them in the flesh 
and more people can help check for accuracy.  We have raised money from 
several recent films nights and the UWE event.  Investing £15 on this 
seems perfectly reasonable, unless anyone objects?

Maybee we could make local transport a focus of the media day - I know 
the Cube have extressed an interest in having some sort of 'Cartography 
Conference' - and we need to make the most of the booking we have for 
June.  We could try to raise some money for printing a larger number of 
maps...

Espacially given then news about council transport policy and renewed 
road development taking money from public transport budgets...

Have we got a story on that yet??
