Moroccan Public Transport

Marrakech - What a mess. But it works!!

I have been in Marrakech fulfilling my responsibilities to you to bring you news of other transport systems. Marrakech has a dizzying array of choice of transport. Horse drawn carriages, donkey carts, motorbike with a sort of skip on the front, buses, local taxi and Grand Taxis (basically a big Merc that can squeeze 7 people in each paying their own fare. They overtake undertake, 3/4 abreast on anyside of the road. In spite of all this its works!!!!. Not too many rules (not observed or enforced anyway), private enterprise, customer service with a smile, airconditioning (open topped or windows down and, cheap. Doesnt sound anything like that bastion of civilisation and home of TFL does it? Thank christ for that!!!
