[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not a Metro defender, but a lot of this is probably two things at work: 1) people aren’t back in their offices full time, so they have no reason to ride metro 2) I think a lot of people moved to the suburbs or more residential parts of the city for more space during covid, metro is no longer a convenient commuting option And among the people who are going in, and for whom metro is convenient, it’s not a great product. No one wants to arrive at work at 8:30 on a Wednesday reeking of weed because someone was smoking it on the train. Escalators and elevators are consistent out of service. Stations/sections of track are shut down for months at a time for maintenance that should have been done decades ago. Stations and trains are filthy, and half of them are unsafe. [b]Metro is really the commuting option of last resort.[/b][/quote] Are people back to slugging?[/quote] Haha touché! [/quote]
