Imagine an elevated metro system with solar panels on top of a plexiglass curved roof to power the entire system, contain the noise, and keep snow off the street below.

I could hop on a warm bus if the stops were clear of snow & ice but that usually takes 3 or 4 days

It's not good to put off for today to do it tomorrow
