Instead of LRT, we should simply build the tunnel through downtown (let's assume $1Billion), and consider using Bi-Articulated buses for transitway only (instead of a silly train) and feed through existing transitway bus stations. No more express buses to downtown, but have the articulated buses come by every 2-3 minutes in rush hour (that would solve the bus gridlock)
What is the fascination with trains anyway??? |
We already know the problems with articulated buses during snow storms. Bi-articulated buses would never work here. Notice the palm trees in the picture. Great in climates that get no snow.
