    I’ve been to US and it’s really hard to use public transport in places without sidewalks… Seriously, I once parked on the other side of the road from a cinema and discovered there’s no way to cross the road without driving. The way everything is car focused goes way beyond poor lines and timetable. You would have to not only completely rebuild lots of infrastructure but also change culture and habits of most people living there.

      Most American cities aren’t built around the idea of taking public transit or even walking to your destination. There’s a few that do it fairly well like Boston but there’s also the issue that lots of people live in suburbs which require people to own cars to get to work.
