As it turns out it doesn’t actually cost that much on regular transit, there’s an AIRPORT SURCHARGE because it’s an “airport train”.
No wonder Americans don’t use public transit, even when the system exists it’s ridiculously difficult and expensive to use.
BART, Muni and others are staring down the gun of drastic cuts right now due to COVID gutting their finances. The feds won’t help and the state is preparing to have the budget gutted by the Trump administration and is looking for things to cut that won’t hurt (these generally don’t exist). I find more expensive programs unlikely right now.
I’m just hoping BART doesn’t collapse at this point
Kind of ironic how the wealthiest nation on earth has all these bankrupt cities and townships.
