Capturing the Real Value of Transit-Oriented Development Our state’s recent transit investments have been held back by anachronistic zoning codes and hostile street design.

2023 @circulatesd.bsky.social study found billions spent on trolley stations yielded fewer returns due to zoning limits. Rules limited housing limited near stations despite resident data showing strong preference for transit-oriented development.

Opinion: Public Transit in San Diego Is at a Crossroads. Its Future Hinges on Investments, Not Cuts. Less frequent transit attracts fewer riders, leading to a 'death spiral,' with reduced revenues leading to more reduced services.

San Diego’s public transit system is at a crossroads. It can either become a world-class network or face cuts that leave people stranded. We need more investment in transit, not cuts. Our CEO @colinparent.bsky.social’s recent VOSD op-ed explains what's at stake: voiceofsandiego.org/2025/02/27/o...

Service cuts will not resolve MTS’s budget concerns, it will only exacerbate them, @colinparent.bsky.social of @circulatesd.bsky.social writes in an op-ed.
