On track for mass transit?

Published



Most Baltimoreans define “mass” transit as hopping in the car and praying they don?t hit traffic. Here in Baltimore we have the micro-subway, light rail, buses and MARC.

It?s a patchwork system at best, and it?s never at its best. Even with the double-tracking of light rail, the Baltimore system is ridiculous. We could learn from a far better system staring us in the face just to our south. D.C. has the mother lode ? a viable subway system. Live anywhere in the D.C. area, and you are probably close to a Metro station.
