Check out the Silver Line extension to the DC metro as a counter point [1]. Something like $7B to run rail 25 miles. And, who knows what the maintenance will be. For large sections of it, they had to run the tracks over the roads. So, now, there are these hulking, eternal masses of concrete that run through the sub-cities along the route. Every day that I see its ongoing construction, I wish someone would just turn off the project are redirect the funds to improving infrastructure to support self-driving vehicles.
