I'm really impressed with the network of center bus lanes in #Seoul. Simple, but seem very effective. #transitsky #climateaction

In the first year of congestion pricing, New York City's subway system saw 90 million additional rides 🤯
Few things better than when public policy works as designed.

Visited the Dem Convention in San Francisco to put in a good word for public transit. We all know congestion is a problem. Cars drive up our blood pressure and the global temperature too. To thrive we will need efficient, safe, and free public transit.

Yeah I agree with @stephenkb.bsky.social here. #WashingtonDC #Metro stations some of my favourites in world. #TransitSky
“You finished those DC metro stations?”
“Sure thing boss, beautiful, moodily lit and oddly unsettling, just like you asked.”

#OTD 100 years ago, 7 new #Underground stations opened serving #SouthLondon. With beautiful modern designs by #CharlesHolden and escalators to all platforms, it was a huge boon to southern suburbs and brought the #Tube to Morden.

Folks, if you’re into public transit, and you’re not following public transit consultant Dr. Jarrett Walker (PhD, Stanford, humanities), then you‘re not doing TransitSky right.

Hi #transitsky!
Figure #transitsky might be interested in this!
I have... issues with the current UX of the passenger info displays on the new @chicagocta.bsky.social trains. Took a stab at what I think would be a better solution, inspired by the new Paris Metro trains and NYC Subway.

At least some forward thinking going on in US regards new rail transport infrastructure. @byerussell.com posted this which looks promising. #transitsky
Colorado has a tentative agreement with BNSF for passenger rail service between Denver and Fort Collins via Boulder.
Est. upfront costs are $333mn for 3 daily Denver-Fort Collins roundtrips funded by state and local sources. It’s described as a starter service.
