American cities sprawl too much for light rail to be effective. Intercity passenger rail would be great, but within a city I honestly think the way to improve public transit is to improve the business systems. Maybe buses need dedicated lanes on highways so they can skirt traffic, for instance. Focus on getting them to run on time, and keep them clean.
