They dedicated a lane for busses recently in my city. It’s in the middle of the road with no stops in the middle. The stops are only on the outsides of the road. This has done nothing but compress traffic from 3 lanes down to 2 and extended the waits at all traffic lights since an entire lane is now dedicated to empty, out of service busses that gets used for maybe 3 hours throughout the entire day.
Huh, that’s funny. The other day I was on a bus in a bus lane that had 2 useless lanes of cars in between the bus and the bus stops. This has done nothing except get in the way of the buses since the capacity of car lanes is insignificantly small. I don’t know why they don’t just get rid of the car lanes and dedicate all 3 lanes for buses to run smoothly.
Ahh yes, the busses that I see have maybe 3 people on em cause they are either so late people walk or take a cab. Stop trying to be mighty, your cause is dumb
You’re the person that suggested removing a bus lane to “reduce traffic”. And now you’re suggesting that because the buses suck we should make the buses even worse. Something about that cause seems a little… dumb.
