What crap. For nearly 100 years the subway has been just fine, and after 10-15 years of corruption and mismanagement we're expected to believe the only solution is a multi-billion dollar upgrade with technology that didnt even exist the last time the system was functioning properly?
CBTC has been an utter shit show in San Francisco. The transit consultants LOVE it. The riders who get to put up with extremely delicate equipment? Not so much.
CBTC is used all day, every day by cities all over the world without issue. I've personally taken hundreds, if not thousands, of trips on train systems with this technology and it works perfectly.
If SF is having problems with CBTC it says a lot more about SF than CBTC.
