Public Transit: The Key to Better Cities

摘要

From Singapore to San Diego, rail-based public transit systems are coming back. Implemented in the context of integrated transportation solutions, they are helping to renew interest in cities as places to live in rather than just places to commute to. The trend is clear, says the author, cities that are investing in public transit systems are not only improving their environments, but avoiding the risk of creating a two-tier society of transportation haves and have-nots.
