Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 06/02/2026What is the reason that LIRR is up so much and NJ transit is down so much? 130
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 05/02/2026Another thing is that a hamburger/cheeseburger used to cost 1€ when I was in Middleschool (around 2018) and now its more than twice that 120
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 04/02/2026Disclaimer: the population data is from 1.1.2024 If you use the data from 1.1.2025 it looks like this: Vienna: 2028289 Lower Austria: 1727514 Burgenland: 301790 Total: 4057593 (Old: 4031434) New result: 277 030
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 04/02/2026Hi @nerd4cities.bsky.social Just watched your recent Video and loved it! Decided to calculate it for Vienna for 2024: Metro area of Vienna population: Vienna: 2005760 Lower Austria: 1723723 Burgenland: 301951 Ridership VOR (regional transit org): 1,124 billion Result: 278,8 160
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 05/07/2025there are only 2 countries in the European Union that don't have a tram/light rail network: Lithuania and Slovenia Come on guys, Vilnius/Kaunas and Ljubljana could definitely support a few lines 6210
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 17/06/2025Copenhagen overtook Vienna and is now the most liveable city in the world according to the economist intelligence unit 070
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 10/06/2025Tbf its mostly Vienna just the Viennese transport company gets 77% of that ridership, while only serving half of the population, and this doesnt even include the s bahn which also gets most of its ridership in Vienna 020
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 10/06/2025The VOR which is the transport association for eastern austria (population 4 million) transported 1,124 billion people in 2024 and increase of 122 million passengers over the previous year 1141
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 05/06/2025the rent areas you look at in Vienna here are btw, not all districts, it excludes districts 21,22 and 23, which is where most of the new supply is being built, but it shows that you cant just sprawl the new housing, you need it to be built where the actual demand is (in the center) 031
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 05/06/2025the rent per squaremeter in Vienna (first graph) rose much faster and is currently much higher than in austrias second largest city: Graz (second graph) Both cities grew in the past ten years, but especially in the last few years Graz was more successful at building new supply 180

Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 02/06/2025Tram extension in Vienna: Cost: 29 million € per kilometer 180
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 01/06/2025Dont get me wrong the bezirks guys there are great, its mostly a problem in the city planning and gardening department 110
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 01/06/2025Yes its better, but even there so mich more greenery could be possible, once you seen streets in Amsterdam, every street in Vienna looks like it has too little greenery 110

Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 01/06/2025Its so bad, becoming very unbearable without an AC in the summer, way too little greenery in the streets 100
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 01/06/2025I am not sure, but theoretically they should get the same proportional money from the klimaticket organization I think 000
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 27/05/2025The austrian population grew by 40 thousand people last year This year growth will probably be at least 10k lower, because syrian migration dropped hard after the war ended and migration restrictions were put up 030
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 27/05/2025Komplett absurd, dass Wiener Wohnen Klimaanlagen einfach pauschal verbietet 030
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 27/05/2025Die züge sind erst so 20 jahre alt 010
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 26/05/2025Ja, aber trotzdem gibts keine kreuzungsmöglichkeiten, glaub liegt eher daran, dass die noch am stärksten an die kapazitätsgrenzen stößt 110
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 26/05/2025The central gov funding figure is only for metro construction btw which has a 50:50 funding split between the city and state 010
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 26/05/2025In my opinion its time to slightly raise the price of the yearly ticket, because it will still be very affordable and the city needs to save somehow Also interesting that the operating subsidy is still lower than all the investment cost to the city which is half a billion € rn 120
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 26/05/2025New data on Public transit funding in Vienna: The Public transit company gets roughly a billion euros from the city and 200 million from Central government, but this is both for investment and operation Fare box revenue is roughly 63% (485M € in subsidy), good considering cheap ticket prices 2101

Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 26/05/2025And here the explanation on why the car lanes wont change on a map, the current set up above and the future set up below 040
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 26/05/2025Here it is on a map, the new bikelane in red, this stops having to go across the gürtel on the yellow existing lanes so you can keep going on the eastern side with no unnecessary crossings 170
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 26/05/2025>single digit number is small True fact, global gdp growth is way too small 000
Infrastructure explained @infraexplained.bsky.social · 26/05/2025Lets gooooo A gap in the gürtel bike route in Vienna at Westbahnhof will be finally closed in the next month Car lanes will stay the same tho, because that road operated with a lane less because of a construction project (which is now close to done) anyways 060
