With the right projects like, the transbay terminal and I-280 city can actually allow development and create funds for transit at the same time.

the transbay terminal is not another transbay tube, nor is it an expansion of the capacity of major bart stations.

at rush hour, at many stations, there isn't only no space on the trains, there's nowhere to fucking stand and wait for them.

If they end up implementing all their plans its a major capacity expansion for cal train, and part of a sister plan that would connect oakland to downtown SF via second transbay tube.
