Link21 has been working since 2019 with a big idea: an underground Transbay railroad from San Francisco to Oakland, with possible service to Alameda. Ken Der gives an in-depth look into the project thus far, the proposals and debates, and the roadmap for the future.

Some of the on-the-spot illustrations by @alfredtwu from our workshop on #Link21 and making a more seamless rail network in the #BayArea. We have layer upon layer of hard transportation infrastructure in the US designed by people who have never taken transit. High time those who actually take transit were designing/redesigning the systems. It would completely change the #userexperience for the better.
