[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We dont' need fast bus service from Bethesda to Wheaton. That's what the Purple Line will be for.

The Circulator buses work well to get people around Bethesda, and to/from the Metro. If you want to go Metro station to Metro station, then take the Metro. That's not the point of the Circulator bus. [/quote]

No it is not - the Purple Line goes to Silver Spring not Wheaton.  So someone would have to transfer again which no one with means will do.

So yes the bus times from Bethesda to Wheaton should be improved, even with the Purple Line coming. And it also doesn't make to take Metro from one suburban station to another - that is actually in part what the Purple Line is for.

And there aren't any Circulator buses in Bethesda or even any circulator type buses serving Bethesda[/quote]

Are you saying that nobody with money will transfer from the Purple Line to the Metro? Or that nobody with money will transfer from the bus to the Purple Line to the Metro? Of course they will, if that's a good way to get there.

I don't know if there are a lot of people who go from Bethesda to Wheaton, though. Wheaton isn't a big job center. Bethesda is.
