[quote user="Phoebe Vet"] Charlotte began building dedicated lanes for BRT, but the project has been slowed by the economy and the completed lanes are not being used for anything.  The people who will eventually be served are still saying they don't want BRT, they want light rail. [/quote] Who are the people?  How was the population of potential users determined?  Were their opinions determined by a robust, statistically valid sample or was it an informal, non-statistical sample?  If people don't fully understand the cost structure of goods and services, they tend to over use those services that are priced below their actual cost. Driving is a prime example in the U.S.  Because motorists don't see the full cost of driving at the price points (pump), they tend to drive large vehicles more miles than might otherwise be the case.  The same idea applies to all mode  of transport.  Therefore, do the respondents understand the cost structure of BRT vs. light rail?  And how did the survey determine that?
