Heya friends! Hope you found last week’s edition informative, your feedback was quite strong that a greater focus on racial equity is needed (both in this newsletter and within our industry). Today I’m thinking about what public transit systems could be like all over the world if they were given the same budgets as police departments. In the Bay Area I imagine the scale of BART, in DC I wonder if their trains would still be catching fire. Would we see public transportation as essential as community safety?
