So what do we do? What we have has been shrinking and deteriorating since the 60's really. And year by year we lose routes, service and capacity. There is no good transporation here at all. Public or private.
IF you live in the city, you have to own a car because SEPTA doesen't get you there. If you live in a old neighborhood, owning a car is a pain because the streets weren't designed for every house to have a car, let alone 2 or 3. If you take SEPTA, it takes you twice as long to make the trip. Kind of defeats the purpose of living in the city.
If you live in the 'burbs, you have the train, but it only goes to one place, Center City. It runs once an hour. If you have many places to go, the train does you no good. So the alternative is to sit in traffic somewhere.
It's gotta get better than this......doesen't it?
