It's an early-January treat to read @yfreemark's annual list of the transit projects around the world set to open over the rest of the year; this year's version also notes the countries opening the most kilometers of fixed-guideway service, and it's a pleasant surprise to see the U.S. rank first. https://www.thetransportpolitic.com/2023/01/12/openings-and-construction-starts-planned-for-2023/

1,100 kilometers of new transit lines from Canada to Saudi Arabia will open in 2023.
