Cost Comparison of Transit Systems In N. Carolina

[Sabaidee]

It's interesting, it shows that Raleigh's TTA has the highest cost of operating compared with collected revenue from fares.

Right. Do you have information to share with us about the cost/benefits of new road construction?

Don't forget to include the cost of ongoing - neverending - maintenance and expansion due to new development that is follows roads.

While you're at, why not show just how much development is built around highway interchanges and rail or busway transit stations.

Compare these and then, let's talk about fiscal responsibility and the associated fiscal efficiencies of scale including the delivery of public safety, public services, and public utilities.

Finally, don't forget "demographic trends", "freedom of choice", and "social engineering" when you're talking about people being "forced to 'give up cars'" but having no other choice but to drive their cars to go anywhere.

It's time for transit supporters to take the offensive folks! It's way too easy!
