This is apparently in Columbus, Ohio – a pretty major city by any stretch of the imagination.

And yet there are people who rail (geddit?) against 15-minute cities and efficient public transit that ensures no one ever gets stuck like this.

    Columbus is special. It’s a 15 minute city by car outside rush hour. But gods help you if you don’t have a car. The bus comes like every hour.

    I spent years there trying to convince people that it needs light rail

        That looks more like they had a role in the national rail lines and trams, before proposing a really good light rail system and continuously changing their minds to oppose it. Which is exactly what I’d always heard. “Rail is too expensive and difficult and it doesn’t work, we’ve tried and it keeps getting proposed and shot down”
