[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Free is great, but they really need to work on expanding bus routes (particularly east-west routes) and improving reliability for ALL parts of the city. We're in Ward 4 and like to take the bus to school and weekend activities. During the weekday buses are often late (which can make you late to school) and just flat out don't show on weekends. I can bail and drive, but what about the old folks and shift workers that have to sit at the stop for 45 minutes hoping a bus comes eventually? As those old folks like to say, it's a problem for us, not for the folks riding the 16th street buses. [/quote]

I don't think there's many people who don't ride the bus because it's too expensive. People don't ride the bus because it's too slow and too undependable. As usual, our elected leaders are focused on the wrong thing. [/quote]

Please reframe your analysis from the standpoint of someone lower income.

Let's make it more frequent and dependable ALSO.[/quote]
