[meme] Las Vegas Loop -- expectations vs reality - Lemmy.world

Vegas has a monorail that was horribly designed. The stupid thing should have started at the airport.
Didn’t the cab companies interfere with that? Or at least lobby hard against it?

That I don’t know. Would make sense since that’s their bread and butter.

The explanation I heard is they planned to add it later and felt they’d get the money. They didn’t because usage was low.

It’s a shit design. It doesn’t really save you much time or effort.

I mean, I’d believe that too. I’m pretty far from it and avoid the strip as much as possible, so I’ve never had the “pleasure”.
I love the idea of public transportation. So I rode the hell out of it. Yeah, good idea. Bad concept you have to walk further to use it then actually walking to most places.
They did. They’re also the reason why it took Uber and Lyft ages to break into the Vegas market.
