It would come with a funding schedule for an 8th Avenue tunnel if needed. But if it turns out SE ridership isn't that high once the SE LRT starts operation, then that funding can be released for the NC LRT.

The goal should be to improve service, not worsen it. Reducing frequency solves a math problem, but it makes using the system worse. That’s not a solution worth considering. It’s not like 7th Ave is good or has been for 15 years, it’s the worst part of the system and that has nothing to do with it only having three car trains.
