Improve public transportation with good lines and timetable. People will use them.

Instructions unclear. We made driving more difficult and now the city is bankrupt.

-every city planner

I don't think that someone who owns a 80k pickup truck that he can't afford is just waiting for that new tram line to use.

I expect you're not wrong.

But in my mind, the real goal is to get people used to public transportation being an actually viable option before they get an over priced truck. Get them used to living without a car bill and then watch them never get a car because of how much it'd cost in car bills, ya know?

agreed. thankfully my city's been doing expansions of the rail transit system, but we've got a lot of ground to cover still
