    The Official MBTA System Map

    Or one more that uses the letter-terminals how the current spider-based map does.

    The Official MBTA System Map

    Two Green Line diagrams, one that preserves the walking connections and one that doesn't. (I realize now that Government Center and Park Street aren't consistent, I'll fix it later.)

    MBTA Construction Projects

    It's made from essentially surplus highway materials they pulled out of a closet. In terms of how to make a mini-high quickly and cheaply it's a good idea, but it's obviously temporary and it immediately starts a ticking clock for replacing it with a full-high, and I don't know that those...

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

    This is a benefit of electrification, not NSRL. Until some neighboring states can get on board it's not happening, and I would argue that the effort would be better spent elsewhere.

    Biking in Boston

    I've seen some wild stuff in NL, I'm 100% certain it's possible.

    The Official MBTA System Map

    BNRD makes Chinatown an inbound stop only without looping like the current SL4/5, so I've opted not to show it.

    The Official MBTA System Map

    I 100% agree but without just writing out the names of the lines there's not much I can do. As far as I can tell there's no current short-form or abbreviation for the lines.

    Oops, forgot to re-export the fixed one. Better now.

    And the Blue/Orange Lines. (Green/Silver are entirely different beasts for another day.)

    MBTA Buses & Infrastructure

    If you're not pretty intimately familiar with what the streetcars were and why they disappeared it's not an unreasonable idea. If you believe that the streetcars were pretty sucky (not really untrue), therefore people switched to driving, and therefore our roads changed, it would be strange to...

    Alright, made some updates.

    MBTA Buses & Infrastructure

    I couldn't find much, however someone shared this image of a design dating from March 2020: Based on this, I think it's safe to say a cycleway will be included. However since a new RFP was sent out earlier this year, I don't think it's reasonable to expect the final result to look like this...

    MBTA Buses & Infrastructure

    Update on the Roxbury Resilient Corridors (Warren St, MLK, and Malcom X redesigns, hopefully with busways): Hi @TheRatmeister, Thank you for your interest in the Roxbury Resilient Corridors project. We are working on getting all the paperwork needed to receive the funding ($20 M) from the...

    The Official MBTA System Map

    Before: After: Although now that I think about it this might be a reversion of a change I made early in the development of this map, idk. Also, I managed to fit most of the inner northern CR stops. Although there are still way too many on the Haverhill Line to fit.

    I changed the 47 to be the left one, it makes the B branch a lot better IMO, so I'm willing to sacrifice the 47's directness a bit.

    MBTA Buses & Infrastructure

    It might be needed sooner rather than later, the 28 already uses articulated buses so the demand created from cutting travel times in half could be difficult to absorb.

    Which is the better Harvard? (Yes the 47 is also different, ignore that.)

    You can see what looks like that diagram inside a trolleybus in this video.

    The Official MBTA System Map

    Well I immediately encountered a major obstacle with this: There doesn't actually seem to be a logo for the Logan Express. Basically every logo or representation I can find, from signs, to buses, to social media posts uses a different logo.
