Hyperloop is a big step that would take at least 20 years to try. What San Francisco needs is simpler and smaller steps to fix transportation. Here are suggestions;
1- Allow private & small mini-busses.
2- Provide the community hanging out near the bart exits in Mission better public gathering places so we don't need to smell heavy amount of pie every morning.
3- Make screens in bart and stations that show the upcoming trains, current train, route etc.
4- Ban smoking, eating, talking loudly, and leaving garbage in the trains.
5- Replace all the seats with smaller ones like all other subways have.
6- Replace shitty Subway shops with good hipster alternatives that people actually enjoy.
7- Improve ferry transportation between east bay and san francisco.
8- Establish shuttles.
- gfodor 13y agoFalse dilemma and apples to oranges wrapped up in one comment. First, we can have people working on the hyperloop and also addressing these problems. Second, all of the things you mention have to do with intra-bay area transportation, and most of them have nothing to do with efficiency but with comfort, while the hyperloop is about efficient transport between two cities.
- oakaz 13y agoI already pointed hyperloop is the big step, these are small steps that we also should make. As I observe, nobody responsible is giving a fuck to the problems of bart. A friend I met almost threw up in the 16th bart exit since it's used as public toilet. Aren't we paying half amount of the money we make to the government? Then why can't we push the city government to fix the bart?!
