Dismantling of NCAR is an assault to our democracy.

Dismantling of Boulder’s NCAR by Trump administration is retaliatory and illegal, universities allege in new lawsuit The plaintiff is the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, a nonprofit consortium of 129 North American universities that manages NCAR on behalf of the National Science Foundation.

Are you prepared to send our young people to Trump’s war of choice in the Mideast? This administration is out of control. Impeach and remove.

Public transit did well in Colorado's 2024 legislative session. Now let's make sure that transit buildout in Colorado is clean (electrically powered, not fossil fuel-powered), safe, accessible, and equitable. Swift automated transit systems meets all those criteria, and -- with the help of Washington infrastructure funding -- can launch Colorado and other states into a promising new era!

Swift automated people movers (& cargo movers) have lower CapEx than light rail, and lower OpEx than buses, while offering considerable benefits over both types of systems -- including express service. Contact us today to discuss your potential project!

Swift automated people movers are under consideration in several cities that value cost effictiveness, energy efficiency, minimizing asphalt, reducing single occupancy vehicle VMT, sustainability, and environmentalism. Contact us if your city's initiatives are moving in these directions!

There's a thriving community around the idea of advanced elevated-fixed-guideway automated transit. Thanks to Elaine Thorndike, Swift-ATN (Automated Transit Networks) CEO for bringing news of Swift's hyper-energy-efficient smart-city cleantech solutions to the PodCar City conference this week in Las Vegas! http://podcarcity.org/lasvegas/

When your government thinks that widening highways is a good solution for moving more people more efficiently, do some research on "induced congestion." Then give us a call at Swift Tram, where we use that unused space above to move people (or cargo) in the coolest way yet imagined. Swift improves land use below by using the space above for fast, clean, panoramic travel!

We agree that investment in transportation infrastructure needs to move from a 'concrete & asphalt' mindset to prioritization of infrastructure for biking, pedestrians, and transit. Swift Tram moves people and cargo autonomously using low-sky above-grade space above, to make room for people-space below. Thanks to COPIRG and SWEEP for this excellent report.
