The public are usually very for that after it’s been implemented. They hate it before, assuming you include people who live outside the area where it’s being built but imagine they might want to some say drive there in “the public”. It’s much more of a mixed bag if you don’t.

Until it needs to be funded. A large part of the public think public transport should be entirely funded from tickets and if it isn't profitable from that it should be shut down and turned into more space for cars.

Where as the true profit of public transport is in other things. E.g. the land valuation around a railway station is way higher than it would be without. The public also seem to be against land value taxes.

The worlds doomed by idiots.
