A Map and a Plan for the CBD...

Several have asked how I would plug in Skyways, Streetcars Commuter Rail and Trolley Buses in downtown... WELL, here is some idea. This is just a concept, many routes would have to be shuffled a bit to make it fit. The KEY:
Purple Lines: Streetcars ON TRACK!
Blue Lines: Skyway FINISHED
Light Greens and Teals: 3 Trolley Bus Routes as CBD shuttles, LOOK JTA it's a Gillig Bus!
Black: Commuter Rail
RED SQUARES: Mini Transit Centers, including Rosa Parks, Randolph, San Marco, Kings, Annie Lytle, TC
So where is the BRT? The regular Bus Routes? They are feeding in from their respective routes into the Transit Centers. Free electric shuttle buses, Skyway and a downtown streetcar do the rest.
A living DOWNTOWN! Gee JTA, what a concept
Go ahead, JTA, Tell me why this wouldn't work? Tell me why I could get this done for a mere fraction of your BRT freeway system. ALL OF IT! Go ahead, I really want to hear...Perhaps the fixation with BRT is a really bad infestation of that political Political Transit ailment called "The Baby Elephant Walk," Daddy leads, and Mommy, Aunts, Uncles, and Babies all follow. Only with BRT, it's done at a faster pace...
