Philadelphia Republicans are proposing cuts to bus and rail service including a 9 PM transit curfew. Expanding service is more difficult than you may think in the US because transit is underfunded and the 1st target for cuts.


> including a 9 PM transit curfew

What the hell? That just seems bonkers. Here, the city council is berating the transport authority for slow rollout of 24 hour routes...


Where I live, most routes don't run at all on Sundays or holidays, and even the days they do run it's only once an hour. I suspect these are typical US service levels.
