I'm saying there are probably unexplored good solutions to that kind of congestion. Another I just thought of is the city motivating companies to make shifts not so centered around 9-5. Spread the rush with shifts of 8-4, 10-6, etc.
- wahern 8y agoThe 9-5 work schedule went away a long time ago. In places like the Bay Area rush hours are roughly 6-10AM in the morning and 3-7PM in the evening precisely because of differing schedules[1]. And that's for white collar work. Factories and service work have much more varied schedules. [1] There's a long tail, too. IME traffic becomes noticeably heavy around 6AM and 3PM, but there's a long tail after 10AM and 7PM.
