As a Eugenian, I was looking for this in the article. I guess it's a potential future extension.

It would be awesome to have high speed rail to Eugene, and I think it'd be the cheapest part to build given the terrain. But I'm not sure a metro population around half a million could serve as a terminal stop.

I guess we'll have to recycle what we can, and put the rest in a landfill. Just the same as what we do with run down cars today.

I guess recycling will be a bit harder because we will not be using the materials to make new cars.

I think the transition away from cars will be slow enough that this wont be a problem. In the ideal situation, people will just stop replacing their broken down cars.

Awesome, I just finished reading the book Two Wheels Good and Rosen makes an interesting comparison between the deliveristas of NYC and the impoverished rickshaw-wallahs of Dhaka.

I'm glad to see conditions will improve for the delivery workers.
