So you really think that NYC has road cost going up because they have puplic transit?
No, not sure why you thought that. My point was that the simple introduction of mass transit does NOT equal reduced road repair costs. And, BTW, I am not anti-mass transit at all. But, mass transit is a loser almost everywhere, that is why it is so heavily subsidised... nobody wants to pay full freight to keep it profitable.
And, BTW, how's Amtrak doing these days?
Yes it does, every time someone usses it instead of the roads then it has had its traffic reduced.
The fact that they are still finding increased use of the roads and the cost of goods to repair the road do not erase the fact that the transit helped.
