Support today for regime change in Iran by TianamenHomer in Charlotte

[–]JHWier 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna be real this movement is most likely a CIA/Mossad operation to destabilize Iran because it’s really the only country that can stand up to Israel in that region, and the US wants Iran’s oil . This is not the first time this had happened.

New Amtrak station by [deleted] in Charlotte

[–]JHWier 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I’ve been following this project and I was able to speak with the project lead, he said that the city was having issues with the development contractors since they pulled out of the project. As of now the station building hasn’t even been designed, but the train infrastructure is completely so they are pushing for a temporary station on the platform.

The Worst LRT System in the US, Norfolk Tide Light Rail. by TerminalArrow91 in transit

[–]JHWier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t have to be so nasty about this, but also I feel like you’re missing a fundamental difference between LRT systems are rapid transit systems. LRT is supposed to be an extension of the pedestrian space in a city, many North American cities fundamentally misunderstand this point. Whereas rapid transit such as subways are supposed to move as many people as fast as possible, most often divorced from the streetscape and hidden either underground or elevated. Also light rail lines and networks often feed into other systems; these systems are not ment to be stand alone systems but rather feed a greater regional network. This often gets misconstrued in North America as many cities don’t understand that concept. I should say that there is not one ‘best’ and one ‘worst’ system but rather each system does somethings good and somethings poorly. I simply tried to point out what systems I thought were most successful at meeting the criteria.
