Dear members of this forum,

I'd like to send you the brief introduction of Antonio Forno who 
joined our Online Expert Forum in order to represent the Cities for 
Mobility member city of Guatemala with its interesting BRT system 
TransMetro:

"My name is Antonio Forno. I work in La Municipalidad de Guatemala in 
the department of Mobilidad Urbana. I am the department director´s 
assistant, Mr. Fabricio Gonzales, and I will be coordinating 
everything that has to do with Cities for Mobility. We would like you 
to know about the latest outcomes and news of our project: Transmetro.

The project was nominated for the Sustainable Award, and won a honorific
mention for beeing the first rapid-massive bus system [in Central America].

It has provided more than 50 million people with it´s efficient service
and has been filled with positive comments."

CONGRATULATIONS FROM CITIES FOR MOBILITY FOR THE 2008 SUSTAINABLE 
TRANSPOR AWARD!!!

We are looking foward to learing more from you positive experience 
with TransMetro and we'd be glad to integrate you in the project 
proposal "Comparison and Integration of Bus Rapid Transit and Light 
Rail Train Systems as Means of Efficient Urban Mass Transport" which 
has been developed during our last CfM World Congress in June 2007.
