    True, but logistically how would that be viable? Buses would be highly impractical on the vast majority of road due to traffic, and the sheer amount of people that would require shuttles, and what “other transportation”? That’s all that’s there is. People can’t afford cabs, Ubers, or cars, and the distance is to great (or just straight dangerous) to walk or bike.

    You can’t just reverse decades of car centric and awful infrastructure with an easy fix.

      New York City already has a bus system. This isn’t asking them to invent something totally new.

        Trust me. The city may as well not have a bus system. It exists in name only, and I would not trust it to get me anywhere.
