I don’t see any mass migration to PT without the infra changes along with it, Brisbane doesn’t even have a cheap train to the airport and when I have to catch a train to the city for work my trip time doubles compared to my motorbike and I still have to use my car to get to the station… and that’s assuming I’m not 1 minute late and miss the train so then you have to add another 30 minute wait in :( … but at least we are getting some improvements with cross river rail.
At the moment the best bet that I can see to reduce co2 emissions is to encourage EV adoption because at least it is something familiar to people and until the infra changes required to make the place a ‘15 minute city’ come along it’s the best chance we have to reduce co2.
