What’s your city doing (or starting to do) that makes you happy?
I don’t know what city this post is referencing, but I’d be willing to bet a ton of money it’s not in the US lol.
It’s Montreal, so you are indeed correct. Honolulu did actually open the first segment of a very similar automated light metro system just 2 weeks ago, although it doesn’t have the same service frequency as ours. It’s still enough to make it America’s newest metro system, though!
Is this the REM? Operating frequency is 3:45 to 7:30.
Perhaps it is one of the future legs that will hit 2:30?
I am going to ride the REM when it opens and finally visit the south shore. I want to see the living spaces over there. I am also looking forward to the REM to reach the Sauvé station so I can go downtown on trains the whole way.
I wish they’d bring back trolley cars
We are getting more bike lanes and bike infrastructure. I love it!
I love finding a new section that has new separated bike lanes. It’s one of the best surprises. Basically “here’s an entire new city and area you can visit”
Good meme but OMG KITTYYYYYY
This is basically what Ottawa is doing. The only mistake they made was that it doesn’t work when it snows… in Canada.
They also built it to in a way that’s only really useful for commuters who mostly don’t even need to go downtown anymore 🙃
Don’t forget that it also breaks down in the summer too 🌞
My city in indiana is starting a road diet and expanding the width of several sidewalks! Exciting times
In my 3rd world country the catch is that is going to take 20 years to build it. In my city they took 15 years to upgrade a train system to a subway, and they are doing a entire underground line, with only 7 km, that started in 2014, which we have no idea about the complete percentage.
It takes that long in first world countries too.
At least in the one I live in it does.
