This is more than I pay for a MONTH of all local and regional train access across ALL of Germany🤦
Sure, charging a little more for a special event makes sense, but this certainly is not going to encourage people to take transit to the games...
Exclusive @TheAthleticFC
Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) plans to almost quadruple usual prices for return train ticket from center of Boston to Gillette Stadium during World Cup.
Up from $20 for NFL games to above $75.

We'll be keeping an eye on this! Curious to see what you learn.
Gondolas don't make sense everywhere, but they certainly could be useful in more places than we find them today.
Happy to announce that I’m one of the recipient of the 2026 @CRSH_SSHRC grant for my MSc at @ENAP_Universite!
I will be researching the potential role of urban gondolas as a positive disruptor of transit economics in N-A suburban areas, including on flat unobstructed terrain 🚠
Looks like good news in Dallas! We spoke with members from @ridewithdata about this a few months back (Interview in replies)
Reach out! Berlin area folks.
Any ideas for someone to speak to who is knowledgeable about the plans for new trams in Western Berlin (Spandau), as well as the CDU Mag Lev proposal (lol)?
Considering doing a @TransitTangent episode on it.

Last year I decided I was no longer satisfied just posting about housing.
So I started a company with 3 other incredible dudes with the mission to build missing-middle housing at scale.
Introducing... The American Housing Corporation
It’s time to rebuild the American Dream.
For a half-century, America has critically under-built family-sized housing in our most dynamic cities and neighborhoods, rendering them childless and unaffordable.
It's time to save the American Dream.

Going to go check it out with @TransitTangent in like 2 weeks! Very excited to see how it works!
We'll be doing a video on it 👍
I've ridden the gondolas in Medellin and they are connected so nicely to their metro system.
