Your Vision of a Perfect Transit Station

With the Red line finally up and running and the Southwest LRT on the horizon, can you see suburban transit stations playing a greater role in social and economic activity? What sort of amenities would such a station have? Would it include a bike locker? Or, perhaps, a cafe or convenience shop? Do y...

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

I'm a little busy right now. Do you want to plot the tracks and potential stations on a Google map? I will drop everything into existing map when I get a chance.

Re: Downtown Minneapolis Map Collection

Not bad. Wish they offered editor-friendly vector formats (like svg) as well.

Re: Rochester Transit Line

We live in a sprawl.
Not sure what "we" you refer to. I live in a fairly urban neighborhood.

Re: Rochester Transit Line


Bus can go anywhere. Rail interupts the flow of traffic and is locked down. Not sensible solution in a sprawl.
Efficient transit eliminates the very need to drive.

Re: Rochester Transit Line

The system is geared heavily toward suburban/downtown commuters. I imagine attempting a cross-town trip would be nearly impossible.

This is from the official website:

The map fails to indicate just how sparse the service is weekday evenings and Saturdays. There is no service Sundays.

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

I can't really change the geometry of the Green Line, since this would have me redesigning much of the rest of the map (other lines depend on it). The best I can do right now is to move the Bottineau line eastward so the Robbinsdale station aligns with Purple Park Place and Green Beltline. Lake Phal...

I can't seem to be able to send out any PMs anymore. Everything just ends up in the Outbox. My inbox is 4% full. Any ideas?

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

Part of this issue would be that your western border is straight on the west side of Minneapolis while in reai...
