Shopping centers are destinations that are once a week at most for most people, and their employment density really isn't that strong.

Someone sent me this link to a slideshow on The New York Times website that you might find interesting -- it's about bus rapid transit in Bogota, Columbia:

I'm also told that Seattle, Washington is a good example of a city with an excellent transit system, most of which is buses.

"...our #buses plan can throw off the same level of redevelopment en route that a so-called fixed guideway (a light-rail or streetcar line) would."

This just hasn't been true anywhere to my knowledge. It's one of the main selling points of fixed guideway systems.

I think, if we're really serious about transit, under no circumstances should we ever stop approving dense developments in the right locations because of traffic. (Cameron Village is a "right" location.
