On Wednesday afternoon, the Metropolitan Council will review a plan by Metro Transit to end the Northstar Commuter Rail service and transition it to a bus line. The train currently runs between Target Field in Minneapolis through the northwest metro and all the way to Sherburne County, a 40-mile route. Ridership during the pandemic plunged and never fully recovered. If the Met Council adopts the proposal, the Northstar Commuter Rail could end in January. For more on what this would mean for public transit, Minnesota Now guest host Chris Farrell talks with Eric Lind, the director of the Accessibility Observatory at the Center for Transportation Studies at the University of Minnesota.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports on a rather savory spill on a Pennsylvania highway.

Commuters on Cleveland's West Side had better have a mug of patience in the cupholder beside them: A $173 million dollar construction project starts Aug. 4 and will impact traffic on Interstate 90 through October of 2028. Earlier this week on that stretch of highway, commuters may have needed a pontoon. I-90 in Lakewood and Rocky River was under water after a deluge. The construction project aims to fix the flooding. We will begin Friday's “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable” discussing the I-90 project.

WBZ NewsRadio's Jay Willett reports.

Dublin City Council is calling on Dubliners to 'Be Sound This Summer' with a public awareness campaign, renewing its call for everyone to be respectful and to prioritise safety when walking, cycling, or driving on the city's streets during the busy summer months. As part of the launch, activations are taking place around the city this morning. Pedestrians and cyclists are being rewarded by "Soundness Detectors" for positive behaviour, thanking those who look out for others and prioritise safety. Commuters will be rewarded for their "sound" behaviour with an 'I'm Sound' badge that they can wear proudly! Following on from the successful original 'Be Sound' campaign launched in January, this summer campaign features a series of short, snappy social media videos featuring the Lane Hog, the Dangerous Dasher and the Light Breaker. These will be rolled out across Dublin City Council's social media channels, highlighting everyday ways to be sound. Lord Mayor of Dublin, Councillor Ray McAdam, speaking about the campaign, said, "As a city, we're working to make travel safer, cleaner, and more connected - not just through infrastructure, but through how we treat one another. 'Be Sound This Summer' is about recognising and celebrating those small, everyday actions that make our streets safer and more respectful for everyone. By adding a bit of fun and positivity to the message, we're encouraging all road users to look out for each other. Whatever way you travel, being sound goes a long way." Recent findings from Dublin City Council's 'Your Dublin Your Voice' survey show that active travel plays a central role in how people get around the city. On average, people split their weekly transport time almost evenly between walking or wheeling (41%) and driving (40%), with a further 19% spent cycling. Dublin City Council continues to roll out dedicated infrastructure across the city, with three vital active travel schemes being completed within the next four weeks: the Ranelagh Village interim scheme, Beatty's Avenue to Herbert Park (part of the Dodder Greenway) scheme, and the Royal Canal Phase 3 scheme. With the summer months bringing more people out walking, cycling and driving, particularly around holidays and city events, Dublin City Council is reminding everyone to be alert and considerate on the streets so people can feel safer opting for more sustainable modes of transport. Active travel doesn't just support safer roads; it also delivers wide-reaching health and economic benefits. According to the most recent 'Walking and Cycling Index', walking and cycling in Dublin removes up to 530,000 cars from the roads each day and generates an annual benefit of €2.39 billion for individuals and the wider city. It also prevents 3,655 serious long-term health conditions each year and saves the health service approximately €64.5?million, equivalent to over 1.17?million GP appointments. Christopher K Manzira, (Acting) Director for the Active Travel Programme Office, Dublin City Council, at the launch said, "With more people choosing to travel actively across the city, we all have a shared responsibility to look out for one another. 'Be Sound' is a reminder that safety and respect are essential on our streets. Whether you're walking to the shop, wheeling to work, or driving through town, a little soundness can make a big difference. The data shows that active travel benefits us all, from reducing emissions to easing congestion as well as the additional health benefits. We want everyone to feel confident and safe doing so." The 'Be Sound this Summer' campaign will be visible across social media, digital channels, and on-street activity. The first video, which looks at the 'Lane Hog', can be accessed here: For more information about Dublin City Council's Active Travel Network, visit dublincity.ie or follow @DubCityCouncil on Instagram, Facebook and X.

Not-so perfect alibis, a missing wife, and some supernatural horrors are on deck with my favorite Suspense episodes from 1946. Joseph Cotten commits an impulsive murder and has to reverse engineer an alibi in "Crime Without Passion" (originally aired on CBS on May 2, 1946), and J. Carrol Naish hopes he can disappear into the crowd after killing his wife in "Commuter's Ticket" (originally aired on CBS on August 1, 1946). Robert Young searches for his wife when she leaves after a fight - and disappears - in "You'll Never See Me Again" (originally aired on September 2, 1946). Brian Donlevy is a psychiatrist whose new patient is a human lie detector in "Lazarus Walks" (originally aired on CBS on October 31, 1946), and Robert Taylor stars in what may be the scariest Suspense story ever - "The House in Cypress Canyon" (originally aired on CBS on December 5, 1946).

KINTO Join, Ireland's leading sustainable commuting solution, have announced new survey findings from its 'Ireland on the Move' Report which found that 35% of commuters in Ireland are looking for a new job to have better commuting options. This increases to 42% among 18-34-year-olds. The research - based on a survey of 1,000 Irish commuters comprising university students and employees - found that 65% consider commuting options when selecting a new job. Furthermore, the same proportion (65%) are more likely to stay in a job with more favourable commuting options, whilst some 68% would refuse a job if the commute was too long. The research also seemed to suggest that the option to go into the office or work from home is waning, with more than half (51%) of respondents feeling under pressure to travel into the office for work. With the commute having a significant influence on decision-making when considering and choosing an employer, it is perhaps unsurprising that 71% of commuters would prioritise employers or universities providing a free or low-cost shuttle bus service. To promote alternatives to solo driving, 45% of respondents said universities and employers should contribute to public transport costs. Meanwhile, 36% think they should offer a carpooling programme or app, with a similar proportion (35%)saying they should promote cycling through schemes such as Bike to Work. In terms of the overall commuting experience, some 62% of commuters agree that workplaces and universities should be more involved in supporting same and 39% believe employers and educational institutions have a responsibility to meet sustainability goals and regulations. However, just over a quarter (26%) of commuters believe their workplaces or universities are doing a good job at meeting sustainability goals and regulations. As for taking an active role, more than a third (36%) of commuters believe employersand universities should incentivise sustainable travel. In terms of specific incentives which would encourage people to change their means of commuting to a more communal or sustainable method, almost half (46%) of respondents cited more flexible working-hours. The other top incentives werefound to be tax reduction schemes (37%), additional time off work (36%), reward points programmes (29%), and free coffee and treats (29%). Patrizia Niehaus, CEO, KINTO Join Ltd, commented: "Commuters in Ireland clearly care about how they travel to work, with many making career decisions with this in mind. However, they lack choice and support. In turn, organisations are potentially missing out on the best talent and undermining their own sustainability objectives. "They might not realise it yet, but business leaders have the power to facilitate more sustainable journeys for both their people and their companies. From shuttle buses to staff rewards, these micro-level actions can have macro-level impact." See more stories here.

Commuters in our biggest city are staring down another lengthy rail closure. KiwiRail's Dave Gordon spoke to Corin Dann.

It's claimed the decline in commuter activity in the aftermath of Covid-19 has contributed to the sharp increase in house prices in Clare. According to the latest Daft.ie report, the average cost of a home in the county now stands at just over €277,000 off the back of 10% increases seen in each of the last two years. While since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, house prices in the county have risen almost 50% from just under €187,000. Economist at Trinity College and author of the report, Ronan Lyons has been telling Clare FM's Darragh O'Grady that the culture of working from home has led to increased prices in counties bordering large cities.

THE COMMUTER, 11min., USA Directed by Joseph Sauchelli A protagonist struggles to cope with a rough commute in the only way she knows how. Get to know the filmmaker: What motivated you to make this film? Really the urge to make something, particularly for cheap. When you know you are going to go down that route, you begin looking around at what you can use for free. Hoboken has this old fashioned train station I always admired and found cinematic, so I began to build a story around it. With college and my job I have commuted for quite some time, so I tried to bring that experience to this film – which immediately turned into a stressful thriller. From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film? The idea for “The Commuter” is several years old, however it took some time to feel ready and finally take the step towards making the movie myself. As I reflect on the finished product a lesson I have taken away is that no one is ever really ready to make a film, and it is a risky mindset to subscribe to. On one hand you want to make sure your script and pre-production planning is to the best it could be, however you must be careful not to lean on the excuse that “it's not ready” like a crutch.

This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.Today is the 20th of May and here are the headlines.1. India's Global Anti-Terror Diplomacy DriveIndia has launched a major diplomatic outreach, sending seven multi-party delegations to 32 countries to highlight its fight against terrorism, particularly from Pakistani soil. Briefed by the Ministry of External Affairs, the teams will explain India's military response after the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor. PM Modi framed the doctrine as part of a global anti-terror campaign, stating there will be zero tolerance for terror sheltered by “nuclear blackmail.” The goal: convince the world not to equate India, a terror victim, with Pakistan, a terror perpetrator.2. TMC Replaces Yusuf Pathan With Abhishek BanerjeeAfter initially rejecting the Centre's move to include Yusuf Pathan in its foreign outreach delegations, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) has nominated Abhishek Banerjee instead. The switch came after Union Minister Kiren Rijiju spoke to TMC chief Mamata Banerjee. Abhishek, the party's general secretary, will now join the anti-terror diplomatic push. Separately, TMC is sending its own delegation, led by Manas Bhunia, to Jammu and Kashmir to support victims of cross-border terror. Earlier, Pathan, a cricketer-turned-MP, had been named without TMC's consultation, prompting the initial protest.3. Heavy Rains Disrupt Bengaluru; Red Alert IssuedBengaluru faced severe disruptions on Tuesday after intense pre-monsoon thundershowers caused widespread flooding and traffic chaos. The India Meteorological Department has issued a red alert for the city and Karnataka, forecasting heavy rain, thunderstorms, and lightning through May 26. Commuters struggled, with some taking two hours to travel just 7 km. The Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre has echoed warnings of extremely heavy rainfall and advised caution. The relentless downpour left several areas waterlogged, reigniting concerns over the city's poor infrastructure and monsoon preparedness.4. Veteran Nuclear Scientist M R Srinivasan Dies at 95M R Srinivasan, former Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission and a pioneer of India's nuclear program, passed away on Tuesday at age 95. He is survived by his wife and daughter. Srinivasan played a key role in developing India's indigenous nuclear capabilities, working alongside legendary scientist Dr Homi Bhabha. Honoured with the Padma Vibhushan, his death marks the end of a historic era in Indian science. District Collector Lakshmi Bhavya Tanneeru paid floral tributes to the distinguished scientist's mortal remains.5. Netanyahu Offers Conditional End to Gaza WarIsraeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he's willing to end the Gaza war if Hamas agrees to strict terms, including disarming. His statement comes amid rising international pressure, with the UK, France, and Canada threatening sanctions over Israel's latest Gaza offensive. Netanyahu slammed these nations for demanding a Palestinian state, calling it a reward for “genocidal attacks on Israel.” In a joint statement, the Western leaders criticized Israel's denial of humanitarian aid to Palestinians, warning that it could violate international law if continued.That's all for today. This was the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express.
