Episode 10: Where the fuck’s my fucking train?
When was the last time you used public transport? In a pre-Covid era, if you live in Europe, this is most likely an odd question to ask as it probably wasn't that long ago. In America, the car is still king. Regardless of where we live, globally the question still stands where do our comfort levels lie with utilizing public transit in our respective cities. And has our relationship to public transit changed as many of us opted to leave the city behind?
When the pandemic first hit there was a fear of a mass exodus of cities, while there were many people who left cities across the globe to be with family or have more space. This exodus is now eroding and we are seeing people move back into cities.
In this conversation, Toni and Sorcha discuss the role of public transit in cities as we try to move beyond the pandemic. Unlike Europe, public transport in America is a highly politicized and debate topic spanning across political values impacting those that most need access to the service.
