Watching Reece talk about Toronto transit planning brings me back to reading about Transit City when I first moved to the city. It fills me with so much optimism for the future. I'm still jaded by Transit City's cancellation by the mayor abruptly the next year.

The latest episode of my podcast, The Urbanist Agenda, is now public on YouTube and other podcast platforms.

In this episode, I talk to Reece from RMTransit, about how the Toronto police don't seem interested at all in enforcing traffic laws.

Trackless trams are the new hot thing in public transit. But, are they really just buses running in special lanes? Do they actually solve any problems not better solved with other forms of transit?

RMTransit discusses trackless trams in this reply to the CNBC video on the topic.

The answer is no.

In this video, RMTransit tells you why the answer is no (except in some rare cases).

In the nation's capital, a transit system exists that is actually useful. The DC Metro system is an extensive transit system connecting DC and the surrounding area.

On a personal note, I lived in the DC area for 8 years and relied on the Metro. There are certainly problems and I'm not as impressed with the architecture, I have to agree, it is very useful.
