MODERATORS
Should be noted that this applies specifically for the US. Countries with more developed public transport might see lower returns on (further) investments.
And this study was sponsored by a public transport organisation, so there might be bias.
But I haven't worked through the study to truly cast doubt on anything and even if it was only a 2:1 return, it would still be an insanely good invest.
