[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]there's a great bus system in ARL. [/quote] It’s only on major roads, and even the most frequent only comes every 15 minutes. In almost all cases, walking will be significantly faster, and possibly not much longer depending on where stops are. ART is designed to funnel people to the metro stations, not to schools.[/quote] Taking the public bus usually involves some amount of walking in lower density neighborhoods, which is a healthy practice. There are free apps that show public transit arrival times. There are many cross county buses, and they are on most all major streets. That said, a 1.5 mile walk to school radius is not unusual for school districts. [/quote]
