So in other words, you're going to inflate costs considerably to build a heavy rail system with full blown grade separation and tunnels that may never need 20 tph (trains every three minutes) because you're unwilling to cut off small side streets?LA is not likely to "never need 20 TPH", not with a population density of over 21,000 people per square mile. You will never get 30 tph light rail on the street, and you won't get the volume of heavy rail even if you move the light rail underground (after which you may as well have built it as heavy rail). |
