lol. I live 3 miles from a train station. I can walk a half mile take two buses and spend 45 minutes to get there which isn’t synced to any train. Or I can walk about 55 minutes due to intersection crossing. I can drive there, right around ten minutes which I’ve done plenty. I should bike but part of the route is a little hairy
Around the world the studies all show the same, ridership massively drops when the start point is more than 500 meters from a pickup spot
We don’t need HSR, we need interagency cooperation and coordination.
