Transit Turmoil ft. Alon Levy

Transit expert Alon Levy joins the show to talk about why building public transportation is so difficult and expensive in so many parts of the world. Why does New York lead the world in how expensive their subways are? Why is it difficult for certain countries to learn best practices from other countries?  Which countries get it right, and what practices do they use that allow them to build more efficiently?
