Houston's transit agency recently shelved a proposed BRT line that voters approved on two separate occasions while dumping money into microtransit. I hate it here.

As a urban planner fan and student, I have read many books and watch many videos about the topic of "urban planning", and I love to come across videos that expand on the details of how a nation crafts it's city planning. I would like to highlight some insight on this video too. After hearing your statements, I have notice a core idea in the dutch "crafting" of bike systems. I would call it "low-tech compact dynamics". The Dutch will mold the raw land to create "compact sized areas" that makes streets and neighborhoods have a "small village" feeling to them. No need to set up stop signs or traffic lights, because the guidelines of the "micro sized" streets and mother nature's raw land, dictate what you can do and not do on the street. Everyone has to negotiate when using this type of street. Traffic lights have there place in "corridors & downtown environments", places where big numbers of people will cross paths with each other and with too many people interacting in a big area, the almighty traffic light has to manage the negotiates. Thanks for your insight and video work. keep it going.

You seem like the type of person who would talk about how easy it would be to copy the key to a locked classroom with a laser cutter inside and use your copy instead of waiting for the teacher, just because you can.

As a New Jersey resident, I hate the fare system. New York and Pennsylvania is one price unless you take the express. **sighs** Amazing video nevertheless.

I never knew the Newark Light Rail had a cheaper underground only. I think I have only using the light rail to go to Bloomfield and back, so it never applied to me anyway. How convenient they don’t mark which sites are underground on the map either.

What if I don't want a car? The sci-fi writer Arthur C Clarke once said he would refuse to travel in any transport mode that didn't allow him to read while travelling. I agree

If there's people complaining about the wait time on the bus, I wonder how much their blood pressure rises during traffic or god forbid a red light at an intersection.

What about the toronto ones 😂😂😂

Fastest way to improve passenger trains in usa is to make them have priority on all routes

this video looks "science facts based" but you keep talking about cost, with $ as unit, but the REAL cost should be measured in JOULES.

For a more comprehensive look at those failed advisory lanes, I'd like to recommend this video by Build the Lanes: ruclips.net/video/GIMy8PMdnhA/видео.htmlsi=QeVStqS0sbJyKnuZ It shows that context really matters. They work best on local streets with minimal through traffic.

This is insanely well produced! The music, transitions, and video attributions-everything is beautifully put together.

Can we get an update on these projects?

How is the Downeaster "disconnected" from the rest of Amtrak when it starts/ends as Boston?

i thought this was about newcastle and was shocked when this guy wasn't a geordie

Amsterdam has so few cars? Isn't Netherlands one of the highest car per capita in Europe?

The barriers @ 4:52 are the exact ones in the UK! The gates don't generally go that high though. There's now a bit added to the front to allow for contactless payments, however some services (Stansted Express (London Liverpool Street to London Stansted Airport) especially) rather controversially not accepting them or the London Oystercard, as valid payment (technically a break of contract), meaning people get fined on the other side. For the Stansted Express at least, this has been an issue since at least 2019, with at least 16,000 fines issued every year, most very likely for this exact thing!

Can't believe I missed this video. You need to upload more often dude. From across the pond, you're awesome!

Not to mention paying drivers for each kid or disabled person who can’t drive.

i live in portsea island {portsmouth uk} everything is walkable or on your bike good bus and train service .. and beautiful beach's .. i couldn't imagine living in usa suburbia .. it looks really cold and lifeless , i hope your laws get changed soon for the better , usa is a lovely country

Motonormativity people can't help it, just gotta drone on and on about how "gud da cars is" when most normal people have every reason to know that they actually kind of suck at least the way we've implemented them as the only means to get to any fucking place

Bro showed himself committing a crime and showed people how to fare evade💀

I am near Princeton diky train station

this is such a well made video!

How about families of 5 or 6 barging through the gates at PATCO on one or two fares? How about fare evaders following closely paying passengers through the gates? Without the paying passengers permission. Been there saw that.

I wondered what the smooth jazz was about

Nah, bro, public transit saves you money and time, and also saves the environment, and you can reduce your carbon footprint.

This video is really nice. Also, the only way to evade the WMATA gates that are shown is to get up onto the side of one of the gates and crawl over, like what was demonstrated. If WMATA added solid frames around the side and tops of these gates, it would suppress even this method of evading, and therefore would be truly impassable. They would be the second type of fare gate/turnstile like this, after the revolving ones used in the NYC Subway.

The "unbeatable" turnstile at 11:26 - I've actually gotten through those before. I literally climbed up the bars to the ceiling of the station and just climbed down the other side. This was actually at a more secured septa station in philly along their regional rail line.

I think our ridership is down because of remote work.

The sheer lack of affordable houses makes this a pipedream for many though. After having lived abroad for 15 years as a Dutchie I can no longer return because I simply can't afford the rent. And the systems won't even register me for the few remaining affordable homes because I don't have an income there. They changed the rules of the game. Housing, healthcare, education, social welfare systems, they've all taken a turn for the worst. So much so that at this point videos of how amazing Holland is supposed to be are starting to look like pure propaganda to me. If I'd believe in conspiracy theories (which I don't) I'd say the government is behind all these. The Netherlands is a nice country but only go there with a big bag of money. Otherwise you'll be in for a surprise.

I can't drive a car lol

As a Baltimore resident, just know that the subway sucks because of Larry Hogan. Fuck Larry Hogan. Okay there's other people too but he delayed the red line by like a decade because he's an asshole

Politicians will tell you its affordable housing and when it goes up its not affordable. This happens in Philly all the time. These people aren't dumb. Your video is excellent! But you might be a little naive about the goals of residential real estate developers and the politicians they bribe.

One thing I like about NJ Transit commuter trains better than the MTA LIRR or Metro North is that they don’t do peak fares on rush hour NJ Transit trains and that the fares stay flat while MTA Railroads charge a little extra when riding trains in rush hour peak directions. And even worse, MTA Metro North specifically charges those same unnecessary peak fares on their rush hour reverse peak morning trains. While I feel safe to ride with crowds out of NYC on NJ Transit before or after 3 PM on weekdays, I try to leave NYC by 3:30-4 PM at the latest if riding Metro North or LIRR on a typical weekday.

While NJ Transit’s commuter rail fare policy is confusing but not too overwhelming and easy to pay, SEPTA Regional Rail needs to do a better job with designing their trip planners on their trains. Especially its with how hard it can be to get point A to point B schedules and fares on many SEPTA Regional Rail trains, and the site for that is so differently structured compared to NJ Transit’s or MTA NYCTA’s.

This song is Definitely An Amazing Masterpiece! It helps reduce anxiety and it’s also pretty funny too, even if still feeling so confused about trying to understand NJ Transit’s complicated fare system. Especially their bus fares are what literally everyone has trouble understanding in many different ways!

I started riding NJ Transit as of the early 2010s and independently as of 2017-2018 but it took me a few years to get the whole fare system in mind, based on where I ride and what mode of transportation I use. Zoned fares of course are necessary for commuter trains and it’s good that the light rail fares are pretty flat but some of those bus routes are just a bit too hard to understand with fares as there’s so many different logics, rather than just a structure of a few fares based on type of bus route it is. It’s even more confusing that some bus routes charge extra for peak destinations that don’t even rely on distance as much, and not everyone is gonna know about that fare difference reasoning all the time. Like $9 one way from NYC to American Dream on the 355 compared to $4.50 on the 163 from NYC to East Rutherford, it’s understandable in some ways to do that but it’s still very hard to understand why that is. Or even more confusing, I almost thought it was $10 one way from PABT to Walmart Harmon Meadow on the 320 but it was actually just $4.25 but they charge $10 on that Same route from NYC to North Bergen but yet Walmart Harmon Meadow is a little bit more west of North Bergen.

Another issue SEPTA has at some stations is that they'll have an elevator that goes from street level to the area just outside the fare gates. The same elevator also has a second door to allow people to go from the paid zone to one of the platforms, essentially using one 3-atorey elevator as functionally two smaller elevators. If you step in at street level and wait for someone on the platform to call it, you ride the elevator right past the fare gates.

Who is this fake Miles guy? He's actually a lot more funnier than that reject, clickbated real Miles who doesn't pay his employees their appearance fees! (speaking of which, Mr. Taylor you owe me $50,000) -Tribal King

the fact its literally called the TIRD
