Our public infrastructure in inner cities used to be beautiful. Not to mention have functioning bathrooms. This was lost at a specific time for a specific reason. Think amongst your selves the root cause of why we can't have nice public things--and why Moscow doesn't have our burden. I'll give you a hint: In many European cities there are lots of bikes. But not really a lot of bike locks, and even then none are the heavy chain locks needed here. Why is this? If you understand the simple issue of a bike lock, you've unlocked the broader issue of US infrastructure.

They are just expensive trains to get to the airport, that's all. Those ships are not really efficient. They are more like a tourist attraction, because Moscow officials presented it as a "first in the world year-round electric ship".

Breeding, consuming, not doing a damned thing beyond watching TV and breeding criminals), Moscow would find it's public infrastructure running on fumes. Forget beautiful stations, you wouldn't be able to have restrooms. Long interconnects and entrances would have to be shut down as they are conduits of crime. NYC needs those 5 min intervals cause of the need to pad schedules: 80% of the delays are human related: Fights, police investigations, drugged out passengers on trains or even lying on tracks happen multiple times a day, so it's impossible to fill the system like Moscow does. Moscow get certain demographics of people, you will look, behave, and smell like NYC.

Kudos for pronouncing all those difficult names of the lines! Just a sidenote: people living in Moscow almost never use those names, they just call them "red line", yellow line", or "salad (green) line" (not to be mistaken with simply "green line"). When a new line is planned, there's a big debate about which color to choose, because it's hard to find a color that wasn't already used and could be easily named by an everyman.

The circle design is actually how most cities were found in early days, because circle is the easiest to defend. Then it expanded and again expanded, and we have a city that was built on that basis, circles. Good for metro, good for defense, but horrible for cars. As I recall, most US cities are designed in blocks, heck, even St. Petersburg was designed like that. This is optimal for cars, but makes the city large and inconvenient for pedestrians

Block design isn't really good for cars, check out modern urban logistics research papers. There is plenty of good videos on YT on the topic, if you wish to explore. It turns out that the more optimal roads layout for cars is a large grid-like structure in which the local segments has few entrances and minimum to zero trespassing routes - when carefully planned with consideration of local population and points of attraction, this layout could eliminate traffic almost to zero.

Metro is great. Design of every Moscow station is just a masterpiece, even for minimalistic ones. For non-local it's unrealistic how can you cross all the city and pay a cheap price. I wish to have metro stuff like this everywhere, but it's just a dream. Just imagine to travel for hours from some small cities to big and back in comfortable trains with wi-fi, cheap price for a ticket and etc.

Few notes from the citizen of Moscow: 1) Speaking about Electrobuses, Moscow used to have the largest trolleybus system in Europe until 2010-s. Now it's gone (despite the campaigns) and majorly replaced with regular buses, while electric ones are only a third, so in the end it became worse for the ecology. 2) MCD lines are refurbished suburban train lines with new trains, upgraded platforms and integrated ticket system, though it's not the case for some stations and trains, especially on recently opened line (D4 has the worst trains for now). D5 is the special case as it is initially planned to open as two separated parts with plans of building underground tunnel connecting them in the future. Old suburban train lines were not in good condition though. 3) Many transfers between new metro stations are too long (longer than it's needed to stretch passenger flow) and in some cases there's only ground transfer which is not comfortable. 4) While trams themselves are updated, that's not the case for the infrastructure. Maintenance happens very late and there have been no new tram routes in decades...

@minkinayu 2 ай бұрын

@@albertbokor6643no, usually they make whole routes being serviced exclusively by electrobuses. The other sad fact is that Moscow electrobuses have to charge while resting, so they spend 1/3rd of their time not servicing passengers. It's still a mystery why city authorities didn't choose trolleybuses with batteries.

@JebediahSchlattus 2 ай бұрын

@@minkinayuin Bulgaria they replaced most of the Trolleybuses with diesels from Germany. When i went there in early 2010s they had almost only Trolleybuses. In the recent years more diesels that still had german stickers on the inside came up. I guess because Trolleybuses are not really practical when it comes to maintenance and especially when there is construction work being done around the area of the bus stop. Omnibuses are just more flexible in general, even if the electric ones need to charge. And trolleybuses are basically just smaller trams, so they don't make sense for moscow to keep up, when in their eyes trams need to be diminished aswell.

Все минусы транспорта Москвы в одном комментарии... Я бы ещё добавил, что на МЦД слишком часто происходят отмены и задержки поездов. Раньше, когда у нас ходили обычные электрички, это случалось крайне редко. + в дальнем Подмосковье сохранились дневные трехчасовые окна, из за чего в первую электричкау после этого окна уже не влезают пассажиры. Видимо в Цппк считают, что в дальнем Подмосковье никто не живёт. А у нас тут вообще то на МЦД 4 за Железнодорожным есть еще Купанвна, Электросталь, Ногинск, Павловский Посад, Орехово Зуево, Электрогорск, Электроугли с общим населением 550к, и большая часть жителей этих городов работает в Москве.

В России только Москва так процветает и имеет отличный транспорт, а мы, колонии Москвабада, в целом, нет, а в Азии и Европе во множестве городов. Не поймите превратно, я патриот страны, но это грабительское и колониальное отношение московской олигархии к остальной стране просто поражает. Только москвичам хлеба и зрелищ, хороший достаток и кучу возможностей хобби и развития, ведь революции делаются в столице, сытые и изнеженные её не сделают. А раздражение и нищету большинства жителей никто не заметит с этого московского праздника жизни - напоминаю, в большинстве регионов медианная зарплата около 30 тысяч, то есть половина получает даже меньше этой мизерной суммы. Россия нищая страна😢, а Москва не Россия С другой стороны, положительное в этом то, что московские сытые либералы никогда не захватят власть в стране, ибо они не понимают страну, а страна не понимает их

Спасибо за интересный ролик о Москве. Действительно, метро красивое. На счёт баланса есть моменты, которые иногда вызывают негодование. В ролике есть идея о важности большой кольцевой линии, для того что бы пересаживаться между линиями. В своих сценариях был очень удивлён тому , что по сути выигрыша очень мало. На короткие расстояния это вместо условных 20 минут, нужно будет 17-18. На длинные расстояния вместо 67 минут - 57 минут. И в общей картине передвижения такое сокращение может с лёгкостью потратиться на передвижения между эскалаторами, ожиданием автобуса и т.п. На счёт МЦД - поезда быстро ездят только до начала центра города. Потом они едут медленно. Поэтому если нужно пересечь Москву быстро, то по не знанию можно подумать, что на поезде быстрее, однако если там есть метро, то на метро будет быстрее, только по этой причине.
