This bit of Franklin St is totally redundant. They should really turn all this area over the trains into more park and connect them overhead to Franklin Square. Knocking down the Roundhouse would mean room for pedestrian bridges there too. This is 3.5 acres.

Do you worry that the Eagles will end up getting stuck with AJ Brown?

@JawnDoe__ @Awildschild Nah I’d say north gets some good changes! They just entirely changed the phasing. Doing their highest ridership routes first is good. Upper northwest is getting some new routes! Lower northwest is car dependent and the changes are around the edges anyway. Somebody had to go last

@Awildschild I also figured it was broken. I think it is much smarter for them to tackle the most important routes first instead of hitting NW first which was weird but I wasn't going to complain. Phase 3 being the 9x routes over other city routes is something tho. No 65 extension is crazy

Republicans from rural Pennsylvania would really have you believe that SEPTA is flush with cash. The reality truly is insane compared to well funded systems around the globe

Center City District has released their report on Open Streets, it is a remarkable success. 27% increase in pedestrian activity 62% increase in in-store traffic 38% sales growth These are remarkable numbers, the city should make Open Streets a regularly scheduled event.

@JohnnyWalsh__ @DPearsonPHL I'm old enough to remember when the Chestnut Street "Transitway" was a nuisance for businesses needing to get deliveries - of the items that it's like, their business to sell.

Throwing money at Septa would be like adding more places to water your horse. This is how transportation will work very soon.

Elon is confirming that Tesla will sell the Cybercab to end customers. That’s a big tell. Tesla isn’t building just a company-owned Robotaxi fleet. It’s building a hybrid network: part Tesla-owned, part customer-owned. A pure Tesla fleet would be capital heavy. Growth would depend on how many vehicles Tesla funds itself. But if customers can buy a Cybercab and plug it into the network, they fund the hardware while Tesla takes a cut of the miles. That’s asset-light scale layered on top of vertical integration. It also accelerates density. More vehicles on the network means better coverage, faster ETAs, higher utilization, and stronger network effects. And there’s a third angle people are missing: some buyers may purchase a Cybercab primarily for personal use— as a fully autonomous private vehicle— but choose to add it to the fleet occasionally when it’s idle. Others may never add it at all. Either way, it works for Tesla. It increases manufacturing scale, lowers unit costs, and expands the installed base of autonomy — while giving owners optionality to monetize the vehicle. Selling the vehicle doesn’t mean giving up control. Tesla still owns the autonomy stack, dispatch layer, software updates, and payments system. Even customer-owned Cybercabs operate inside Tesla’s ecosystem. If autonomy works, Tesla isn’t just selling cars. It’s building a mobility platform— funded partly by itself, partly by customers, and scalable far faster than a fleet-only model.

@_NotA_Bot_ Septa will have to upgrade a lot of the regional rail operation so that they can rely less on conductors and just focus on getting more train operators. It would be nice for Septa to upgrade its tracks, trains, platforms and operations

The most disappointing part of this plan is that the Amtrak yard gets decked, while the SEPTA yard (with curved tracks that are harder to build over), remains, cutting the new space off from the surrounding neighborhood. All because SEPTA refuses to run all-day frequent service.
Jack O’Brien@JackPhillyRE

If NYC can ask for (and possibly get) $20 billion+ to build housing over train tracks, Philly should ask for $5 billion to build a mixed-use neighborhood over train tracks in a smaller and more central location that has already had copious planning...

Just fly, dude, it's 2.5 hours and 50 bucks. And you don't need to build an expensive railroad through some of the most valuable real estate in the nation.

It takes 19 to 21 hours on a daily train to travel between Chicago and NYC, which is roughly the same distance as Beijing to Shanghai, a trip that takes only 4.5 hours by high-speed rail and runs 41 times a day in both directions. Our infrastructure is so far behind.

Revoke 5-10% of driver's licenses and tens of thousands of lives will be saved, insurance prices for auto, property, and health will all decline, multiple forms of pollution and traffic will decrease, and there will be a new demand for robust public transportation. Boomers will magnify all of these problems as the current system will let them drive long past their reasonable ability to do so.

Newly released dashcam video shows the shocking moment a 92-year-old driver slammed into a Westwood grocery store, killing two employees and a customer and injuring others inside the bakery after striking a bicyclist about a block away, authorities said. Full Story: ktla.com/news/local-new…

BF6 was made specifically for casuals which heavily reduced gameplay depth and look how little it matters for the average player's experience. Increase the skillgap of BF6 (easily doable via many things), or forever have a game that is shallow and a shadow of it's former self.
