Reply to comment by PatAss98 in Hot take: bus rapid transit on the boulevard would be better than a subway by avo_cado

I simply do not believe septa is capable of constructing that many miles of heavy rail infrastructure for a remotely reasonable cost

If MTA - an agency with proven, though questionably expensive, subway building in its recent history - chose light rail for the interborough express, I don’t see how septa chooses a subway for the blvd
