One 12-foot-wide lane for: Heavy Rail—moves 80,000 people/hr. Light Rail—22,000. Bus Rapid Transit—20,000. Pedestrians—19,000. Bicycles—14,000. Automobiles—2,000. So...can someone remind me why we continue to plan & build our space-limited cities around cars?
"It’s time to create and fund new service where it is needed, and to buy new coaches and dining cars. That includes fully funding @Amtrak's outline to refresh and replace Superliners. That can’t come soon enough for our members who carry self-help kits like mine when they travel"
