>>1172351My nigger. I won't put my bike on a bus' external rack. I've seen these $13/hr high school dropout bus drivers rearend vehicles enough to know better. Light rail is GOAT. Can take my bike right inside, no need to separate. Quiet, no worries about cage impacts or traffic concerns, route will always take the same amount of time even if every roadway in the city is packed with bumper to bumper. Light rail don't give a FUCK about snow, meanwhile using a bus in the snow is asking for death.
>>1172460>frequency Light rail frequency here is 15 minutes average. Bus frequency is 30 minutes average. Fuck yourself. Also no credit card reception on bus, need to use change like a pleb. I always use canadian money or other foreign coins because it's worthless but the same size as american tender, and they have never caught me. If you use whole dollars it will not give you any change back. Light rail charges to credit card the exact fare, no getting jewed, no carrying around measured piles of coins like a poorfaggot.
>>1172500>connects major corridors with high vehicle and ped traffic, aka where most people live to where most people work>connects the suburbs to the main city>gets around the main city>services 90% of the city (by frequency of use) with a handful of linesBus is retarded. There's a bus line every 3 streets. They should increase frequency and decrease the number of lines so people don't have to wait 45 minutes for a fucking bus because the metro spreads the lines too thin due to covering for cripple accessability.
