    This is just an attempt at getting traffic to a website, right?

    Because that’s a poorly thought out concept.

    Unless you have a super dense city layout, trains are bad at final mile delivery. So in order for people to get from their homes to the train (in the majority of US cities), you need a sensible way for them to travel in instances of bad weather or high/low temperatures. I’m all for more bike paths for regular and electric bikes and scooters and such, but not everyone can use those. So what else is there besides a car?

    Also, I’m sure the article touches on these things, but I’m also not going to make an account to be able to read it, lol.

    Here in Sydney our trains are electric. It’s far superior to take the train than a car when going to work.

    Sidenote we have highest concentration of toll roads in the world. Just opened a new one near city, $11 one way for that 2km stretch. If you travel from further out that’s several more toll roads.
