Wow a lot of passionate responses! Thanks for your insightful comments Carlos Campo. Fact is the system is one of the best examples in the world but it has been a victim of its own success combined with many years of no investment. It’s time to fix that- well overdue.

I'm astounded at the lack of communication between the transport and land planning departments. #Transport should be the #skeleton of land planning, not the other way around, said @aleishmantower at #TTDC18 https://t.co/PtIENAZxQb

There's such a push to #electrification, but not #zero emissions. It's important to look at where the #energy comes from. Are we making the same mistake with #carbon-lock? @aleishmantower at #TTDC18 https://t.co/zeOK1esT5a

Was an honor to speak at the World Bank Transforming Transportation conference #TTDC18 #wbg_transport #wrirosscities hopefully challenging people to stretch their thinking. We have a long way to go!

A bus in a traffic jam is one of the most undemocratic things happening currently in our cities
