people who drive a lot and rarely take transit tend to assume that good transit feels like driving; actual good transit mostly just has less waiting than bad transit
Spending a week and a half in Paris and Madrid really drives home the point that the (American-ish) concept of a "one-seat ride" is overrated, and frequent headways at nearly all hours of the day is the true gold standard.

what drives me insane about “centers and corridors” in US urban planning is that seemingly no professionals in the field have stopped and realized that this “best practice” has not worked anywhere it’s been tried

Radiating network, just like you asked for, boss
(NB: This is a mix of existing rail routes, existing rail routes that would need upgrades for reliable passenger service, old routes that would need rails laid again, and a couple of totally new routes)

the fact that amtrak cascades hit another ridership record in FY25 despite shutting down for two weeks and spending half the year running smaller trains with higher prices bc of the horizon recall is another sign that the demand for rail in the pnw is genuinely insatiable

I support the detention center impact fee because I think it will make it harder to build detention centers in portland. I think this is a very reasonable argument that I hope people will remember when the SDC waiver ends in three years
