Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

I don't have an opinion either way. From a visual standpoint, there is some benefit to having everything appear neat and unified like so: http://goo.gl/4XQUa

Note that Green and Gateway lines are shown as interlining, but so are the W 7th and E 7th pair.

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

Currently is there any indication that the West 7th St Corridor is being considered for a Metro BRT route (rather than aerial BRT)?

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

Maybe your brown line should interline with Gateway, since that's a possibility:
Did you mean to say West 7th (Maplewood) rather than Gateway, since that's what it actually says in the quoted post?

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

I would like to see more concrete ideas for the White Bear Lake LRT though.
Chapter 7 of the Rush Line AA had a pretty detailed map of the LRT alternative assumed for the purposes of that document.
Thanks for that! I will study the report.

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

I think it would be good to not clutter up the map with too many "could be" transit lines. There are plenty of fantasy transit lines on this board for that. I think it would be more useful to see this be a map of what we could reasonably expect to be operational in the next 10 years. I ag...

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

Although it doesn't belong on this map (yet), I really hope the Rush Line gets some more attention soon. LRT from Union Depot to White Bear Lake should experience decent ridership, and it would fill a void in this current METRO/fixed-route transit network. I'm interested in including both lines on ...

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

I'm dropping all streetcar routes in favor of BRT for now. This list is open to debate: Light Rail Green (Central) Green (Southwest) Blue (Hiawatha) Blue (Bottineau) Possible for inclusion: White Bear Lake LRT (Union to WBL Transit Station) BRT Orange (I-35W) Red Possible for inclusion: I-394 (Purpl...

Re: Mobile Version?

I found a solution that worked for me:

1. In 'board settings' look up an item called 'My board style'
2. from the drop down menu select Frozen Phoenix
3. click Submit and there you go!

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

Streetcars down Rice, Robert, Grand, and Payne Ave have been discussed for potential routes in the past. These sound interesting. Robert - would it cross over to West St. Paul. And where would it terminate? And an LRT to White Bear from Mpls would be a great addition to the network I think. Cool. I...

Re: Twin Cities Future Transit Map

Thanks for the great feedback. I'm hoping to release the map under a creative commons license, so it will be free to use and modify. The grey lines do indeed represent street car routes. I should have made it clear from the start. I will be tweaking these for the coming updates. A streetcar all the ...
