Buses departing every 5 min is my dream (frequency is freedom) but not likely at first. Get some bus-priority lanes before function junction that let buses bypass the car-back-ups (queue jumps) - and that would hugely improve my day-trip to Whistler experience.

Traveling by transit is much, much safer than driving.

More info in this story I wrote for @slate.com a while ago.

Great question, and clarification!

I’d say safe the planet has “big tent” vibes for the left - there are some who care more about polar bears than people.

Across all people though, I agree - civilization is more precise and I will shift to it.

Planet is a 2 syllable, simple word. I’ll miss that.

It's finally possible to glimpse the idea of a great interconnected transit network for a great region like the Bay Area.

But it will only happen if we gently push back every time someone says "but what kind of people is this service for?"

"Everyone", we must say. It's for everyone. 20/20

Perfectly said. So delightful to see this clear articulation of the problem in front of us.

Let's build! 💪🔨🏫

Woof. I had imagined belt drive was immune to troubles.

Sorry that happened to you. Thanks for the education. Hope it’s back in action ASAP and not too expensively.
