You can see how much rail the Dallas-Fort Worth region was able to build by limiting its funding for buses. It's time the Los Angeles region to do the same and start thinking ahead and building for the future instead of just living in the past.
Doesn't Dallas also have hilariously low ridership on the DART precisely because the buses don't feed into the light rail system all that well?
