A federally funded Vancouver pilot is providing free transit passes and access to a shared EV for residents of an Indigenous housing community, aiming to reduce transportation costs and barriers.
We should reframe the question as, how much would you want to pay in taxes to have 10%, 20%, 50% fewer drivers on the road between you and the place in the city you want to be?
I use transit a few times a year and drive once a week. I would absolutely pay from my property tax for fewer drivers on the road. The cost is unfortunately not reducible to some % fewer drivers on the road; that’d be more the specific project or vehicle for change, of which transit is one (of hopefully many)…
P.S. take it from the cop budget that eats half the budget. And put me on that tesseract list already!
