Fewer cars. Faster travel. Less honking. And some questions we still can’t answer.

      They have significantly higher throughput than a car lane of the same size. That’s the comparison that really matters.

      Subways and trams fill different niches. That’s kind of a core point of this. Trams compete with cars for space at street level, while subways do not.

        What? Subways definitely compete with cars.

        Surface roads should all just be converted to pedestrian paths or bicycle-only roads

        I see no need for trams
