Buddy, the families that are constantly going to Chihuly Gardens are sober too.

Though it would be cooler if you weren't.

I mean, a big part of this is some stations are closed overnight anyway, so ridership should be down at those naturally too

I honestly don't think looking at current PATH is very helpful, considering how much downtime it has and how it's constantly crush loaded.

If the DRPA controlled PHL, I feel like PATCO would already have a line going to it directly from Center City, mayhaps sharing part of the ROW of the Broad Street Line.

This 100%.

We need to take the wins where we can get them, and at the very least for AVs we can reduce pedestrians deaths with good policies in a way we can't with human drivers.

The ever popular installations by him beg to differ!

I agree that not all of it works, but also doing it 60 years ago is most of the legwork in the later popularity.

Yeah, we should have started a decade ago, back in 2005.

Oh no, that simply cannot be

It's wild how the No Kings protests are a reliable Bluesky flashpoint - seemingly for the sole reason that the leftists who dominate discourse on here are deeply threatened by the idea that millions of old folks going and crowding the streets could better, without them so much as bombing a Wal-mart

People looked at this before, and it's because everyone decided they didn't want their house to look old fashioned like their parents, in spite of the obvious benefits of reducing heating/cooling costs.

The scholarship on transit oriented development today is definitely going to allow it to pass though.

Not like we're talking about developing various parks forests.

I'm saying that NJT can do it because they are the state, and the state owns the land.

Any state owned land effectively can have this, but not on land they don't own.

I live close enough to PATCO that it makes sense to use that most of the time.

But since PATCO doesn't get to 30th Street, and the Atlantic City line is a complete joke, we simply always get a ride/Uber from home to the airport.

Even before the SEPTA issues recently, there's never been a case where it makes sense to go from NJ to PHL via public transit for the exact same reason.

It should be the most basic and fundamental part of a transit system to go reliably from central business districts to the airport.
