Do you know how many people would use the DT loop if they new it would run every 3-5 minutes and it wouldn't stop at traffic signals (they simply coordinate the lights with the trolley)? I know we would use it for every inner DT trip! We got a Vespa because the trolley is so unreliable, and most times, if you miss it, you have to wait a half-hour for the next one.

SD needs to rezone the inner city for more density (Bankers Hill, University Heights, Golden Hill, North Park, etc..) and then begin planning a subway system similar to Washington DC.

GO BOLTS!
GO JAGS!
Here's to a home AFC Championship!

It's behind Boston (with 255,100 daily ridership), San Francisco (with 146,200 daily ridership, and Los Angeles (with 134,400 daily ridership). Portland is fifth, with 107,900 daily ridership. All of these have similar track lengths, with the exception of Boston, which only has 25.4 miles of track. San Diego, Los Angeles, San Franciso and Portland have 53.5, 55.7, 66.1 and 50 miles of track, respectively.


Go Chargers.
