    Green Line Reconfiguration

    The benefit of going to Porter is then having one branch continue along the Minuteman path to Arlington Heights (old commuter line) and the second branch continue to Belmont, replacing the commuter rail stop there

    The 3 foot buffer is ONLY needed if the bike lane is next to cars. If the bike lane stays on one side of the street, and the parking is moved to the other side, no buffer is needed. The 5 foot bike lane could be at sidewalk level with no additional space requirement.

    Fresno fake BRT started with PoP but switched to regular on board fare box after the 2 year funding to pay for fare enforcement ran out. But now the whole transit system is free, so thats a plus.

    Regional Rail (RUR) & North-South Rail Link (NSRL)

    So Im joking about the 125mph acceleration (and the required safety harnesses), but am more serious about the overall process. The way roller coasters are assembled in a matter of weeks, versus years, is something worth perusing. Basically the manufacturing companies ship them pre-built...
