The WMATA redesign seems to lack an overarching set of goals or objectives. However, this does not apply to stop removals, where the proposals seem to follow a set of principles. One can agree or disagree with whether those are the right principles or whether the stop removal proposals will achieve those goals, but there does seem to be a method to the madness.However, the way BrooklynBus and some others here automatically react to the notion of any stop being removed or proposals being enacted that would create change from the network he personally envisioned in the 1970s is tiresome. BrooklynBus's proposals do not improve transit, as he is unwilling to take steps supported by data that improve overall throughput and reduce reliance upon automobiles (often SOVs) to travel from place to place. I appreciate your data driven analyses, but they aren't the final word either, there's an art to transit planning too. |
