as for the busses theyve have been in a downward spiral the last 20 years. Shitty routes mean less riders, less riders mean less busses which means longer routes which means less riders.
Regularly most of these big 40 something passenger busses they run have 1 passengers. Only people that take them are old, disabled, people that have no other choice.
For shits and gigles after they changed the route I used to take (was 40 min for that 14 miles 2 busses) I took the bus from where id need to commute. 3 busses, 14 miles. It took over 3 hours and the most egregious part was the longest leg which was the 3.5 miles on the local bus that went from my local grocery to my hosue that took a mind numbing 87 minutes. It makes me laugh how SLOW that bus ride was, now they canceled that one so you have to walk the 3~ miles but really you actually save time.
I think I have to seriously consider an ebike.
