I think you're mismatching problems and solutions. EVs are a solution for climate change. Modern railroads are a solution for commutes taking hours in Silicon

EVs are a solution for climate change.
Modern railroads are a solution for commutes taking hours in Silicon Valley (and other places in CA). Electrifying all the single occupancy sedans in 101/680/880 won't do anything to the commute time.
- WillPostForFood 8y agoThis 77 billion boondoggle would have done very little to improve commute times either. It is a mismatch as well. It isn't local transit, and would be serving a few stations at most in the bay area. It doesn't provide any new routes or alternatives other than moving farther out from the city.
