>>1997770>>1997773It depends, agree with the whole zoning thing though. The same issue exists but even more extreme here in Toronto. I checked my commute and taking public transit would add an hour both ways with too many transfers (4 total - bus > train > train > bus). Visited Japan twice so far and enjoyed the mobility there via transit. The equivalent commute ex. Fuchu (west Tokyo) to Ikebukuro is beat via transit even accounting for a time bonus when using toll roads. Even better was that they put small grocery stores and restaurants under the buildings. Anything else could be serviced by convenience stores on basically every block. Trying to find a place to stay for a few months this year over there and as long as you are near a major line, it's super easy to travel. Hell even across the country is easy.
>>1997783I'd also like to have a proper discussion. Would rather drive to avoid the riffraff and mental cases on public transit. More transit should ease traffic for anyone who would prefer driving anyways. At least from a city point of view.
All I want are proper alternatives when I don't feel like driving and to get people who don't want to drive off the road. Keep all the car infrastructure etc.
>>1997871The fuck lmao that just looks like you don't have public transit at all
