I was today years old when I found out that in ‘93, SF voters passed Proposition AA, requiring their Mayor, Councilmember, & City staff to take transit 2 days a week.
So metal @sftru.bsky.social 🤘🏻

It’s funny how you can walk down a block hundreds of times & not notice an old sign. This would be….an ambitious ride

The Seattle area runs 14% less bus service today than it did in 2019. The region grew by 3% in that time. We’ve got to get back to running more frequent transit.
That’s going to take more investment from the City, State, & County. Great research from @urbaninstitute.bsky.social & @yonahfreemark.com
