    Step 1: More bus service. 15 minutes or less on every major arterial

    Step 2: Bus lanes. Spray paint them in at night if you have to and enforce them with cameras or Austin Red Guard

    Step 3: Single-family zoning? It's done for folks.

    Step 4: Public housing right next to all of the major transit corridors

    Step 5: If your city is large enough for rapid transit, do that. If not, all your main bus routes should be made trolleybus routes.

    Step 6: Congestion charge. Yeah, it's a bit neolib, but use that money to expand the transit network.

      Thank you for the concise and direct answer.

      What do you mean by single-family zoning and rapid transit. It sounds like the latter is a highway/tollway? I am not actually a socialist mayor and idk shit.

          Fair, how dense? I live in an area that is rapidly expanding and concentrating

            The Soviets gave every city above 1 million a metro, but I would say 200,000 people is enough for a light metro.

            Do note this is the ideal, in reality most cities don't get metros until they have at least 500,000 people or so
