Transit Woes: A Series

The F.A.B. Version of Light Rail.

Light Rail is the preferred choice of many city planners, me included. However, it is also one of the more expensive alternatives forcing cities to seek additional transportation options. Which brings me to BRT, Bus Rapid Transit. BRT is isolated from automobile traffic, and is able to be efficient and on a schedule. With that, BRT will be the botox to the wrinkles of Van Ness Avenue. It is good to remember that botox does fade away after 6 monthes, and there is no denying that BRT is the FAKE ASS BITCH version of Light-Rail, but it could work!

Indulge on a good educational short film on BRT for Van Ness Ave. in SF.
