@Jasper: That's why I said "(or maintain capacity)" earlier in the comment. Please don't cherry-pick what I said. I said it once at the beginning and in order to avoid repeating it every time, I just used "expand capacity" as a placeholder for both expanding and maintaining capacity.

It's not a new argument about price elasticity. Parking spaces are scarce. Prices are a fair way to deal with scarcity.

Your plan is great. It's not happening, though. The alternatives are raising revenues through fares and parking fees, and/or significantly less service. The more we raise fares and parking fees, the less service gets cut.
