I'm not sure how detailed we want this article to be, but the above source has lots of statistics for various transit systems around the U.S. So far I've used to add NYC and Seattle, but feel free to use for other metro areas as well. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 20:07, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Companion article request

I'd like us to have some article that could talk about things like The Atlantic's "The Pandemic Shows What Cars Have Done to Cities" article and note how many streets have been repurposed during the pandemic to give space to restaurants rather than cars in ways that might stick around after. Would that be at Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on transportation infrastructure or something similar? Does anyone feel like writing it?
