>>1451536>How can you improve public transport in cities massively developed against it? Such as Houston.It's only a handful of powerful politicians that are against public transport in Houston. The people in charge of the public transport have come up with some good solutions and future plans, but they are constantly hamstrung by the politicians. So get rid of the the bad politicians and Houston could be good to go. Alternatively, the city is densifying at a good pace, so the politicians might be forced to add more mass transit options whether they like it or not.
>>1457270It's a miracle that we got a BRT through the Galleria/Uptown. Unfortunately it looks like the University/Richmond line will also be BRT... but it's not entirely bad. I've seen the BRT in Eugene and it's really well done so it gives me hope.
>>1457278>First of all I can't blame him, any public transit is going to bring dregs into a community. Secondly public transit should increase access for the poor, working & middle classes. The rich don't need it.The line anon was talking about connected working class neighborhoods to their jobs in the Uptown area. No the rich didn't need it, but it could help the workers and alleviate the traffic.
