But that's how I found out one of our busses last trip on Sunday is at 1700h. Which is utterly bonkers. How are drunk people getting home from the bar when their bike is broken? Driving??

Honestly for such a small place, Monterey-Salinas Transit is pretty good. I can reliably depend on it to get to work, on days when I donβt feel like biking, which is.. better than many other places here?!?
I wish they ran a bit longer so I have more nighttime options
Happy first week of expanded night/weekend AAATA service to all who celebrate! π
Some bike-on-bus (or is that bus-on-bike) violence here in #CambridgeMA!
(I think the bus was trying to move over in an intersection to make room for something? And then it turned back to continue moving forward? I have no idea what was going on, only that it almost fought the bollard)

Between kid dropoffs and LRT construction, I have mostly been driving to work since returning to the office in December. I must say that the occasional days when I get to take #yegTransit make me so much happier.

My Ann Arbor to Dexter bus route journey today is here

Not an easy commute, but not expensive and definitely worth doing. Dexter is a nice place (library, bakery, trails) where I have friends to visit.

Not having online
rider tools limits this to only the people who want to do their inter-city bus
trips on hard mode.

@bdimcheff millage, and hiring a bunch of drivers, which really means getting new drivers trained up and onboarded in the midst of a national bus driver shortage.
see e.g. TransitCenter report from this summer:

"TransitCenterβs new report, βBus Operators in Crisis,β details the challenges American operators are facing, and offers solutions that transit agencies can take to solve issues locally."
