I used to travel Hiwatha daily, but no longer can handle the traffic, the lights, and the waits. Now I take Cedar Ave or Minnehaha Ave to 26th going to work and 17th coming home due to traffic. It also makes me feel sad to see the rail go whizzing by and I am sitting in traffic.. but can not chance bus waits.
What bus route would you take? I've found that the routes I take are extremely reliable. But I know that's not true for all routes.
I encourage you to come to the ISAIAH Faith in Democracy event this Sunday from 3-5pm at Roy Wilkins auditorium in St. Paul. I will be speaking about public transportation and the need for our legislature to fund it adequately so we don't have these kinds of scheduling problems.
Over 45 state legislators will be there, plus Mayor Kelly, our federal delegation, county officials, police, etc.
If anyone is interested, let me know. I can get you on a charter bus so you don't have to park downtown. We're asking for a $2 donation when you board to defray the bus cost, but we won't turn anyone away.
