ION Phase 2 - Cambridge's Light Rail Transit
(10-11-2025, 06:34 PM)ac3r Wrote: We should have had the 7.5 minute headways they planned on the day they started it. And by now, they should be running 2 LRV units linked to improve capacity. Alas, most people don't use the LRT now unless they have to because it's a waste of time. The average person would rather drive a beater, pay for gas/parking and so on than take some piece of shit streetcar you can walk faster than half the time, not to mention likely have to rely on a bus or two just to utilize it in the fist place.

It is not a "piece of shit streetcar". It is a very nice vehicle that is very pleasant to ride. It is only because we have too many car-brained idiots in this part of the world that we don't have more lines so that you don't have to ride a bus to get to it. Anyhow, what is wrong with taking a bus? We have a good bus system in the region that is well utilized.
