Bogus! The same people that projected Honolulu rail ridership also did the big elevated fixed guide way rail fiasco in Puerto Rico. The ridership was massively WRONG. Lawlor has been a City TOD employee for five years before going now to Blue Planet.
.
If he was honest about saving the blue planet he would be endorsing smart electric vehicles. ALL major demographic trends are rapidly changing with public transit and brick and mortar stores- the information age, Smart phones, Smart cars are totally disrupting and revolutionizing the next generation.
.
All of Lawlor's career of projections for HART rail and City TOD are going UP IN SMOKE.  All now bogus and needing new data- which he doesn't have to justify rail and TOD plans.
