‘I had to wait ten minutes - all transit is bad’ is a take.

If you have to use it every day, it’s a legitimate take.

If you arrive at exactly the point in time every day that hit max headways you have a whole different set of cosmic issues.

What does OP think an acceptable headway is? Every 2 minutes?

Yea that would be an acceptable headway.

In Tokyo rush hour

This used to be normal during rush hour pre pandemic….trains would come every 3-5 mins it felt like. And if you had to switch lines, it wasn’t such an issue. Now you have to wait 10+ mins for one line and then another 10+ mins for the other line. All in pretty crowded trains during rush hours. More trains is a legitimate ask.
