Sunday Open Thread: METRO’s New Bus Network
by Oran Viriyincy from Seattle Transit Blog on (#HJ27)
Today, after a year of work, Houston just revamped its bus network overnight, bringing better service to more people than ever before. Free rides for the first week so people can try it out. I like that off-peak service will be the same every day of the week. It gives a sense of dependability and recognizes that transit is more than just for 9-to-5 commuters.
The amount of work they're doing to inform and educate riders is incredible. Very ambitious!
