Sydney Can't Move

This is not exactly the sort of news I want to read 6 months before I move to Sydney.

Apparently, Sydney ranks behind Mumbai & Mexico City in terms of public transport.

Not being a fan of driving--and being very pro-mass transit in general--I will say that at least based on my own observations, no metropolitan area comes truly close to New York in terms of having a really effective transit system.*

* That doesn't excuse the MTA, nor the fact that the system itself needs serious upgrading.

i'd like to know the criteria that the report was based on. unfrotunately, the article doesn't say.
