Having parades on 4th Ave is genuinely unacceptable, especially now that we have a nice open waterfront
6 buses, 5 of which are delayed between 7 and 22 minutes

Look, I know east-west service in south seattle is hard but please give this like, 5 more minutes, I promise you'll find a better way

We REALLY need to have a conversation about yalls upgrading full routes to RapidRide instead of restructuring. Instead of doing this, RapidRide the north-south part of the 62 and splitting the east west-part into a new route that runs along 65th from Ballard to Sand Point????

Idk what to even do with this God forbid you ever want to go northwest of Lake City Why are you wasting service hours on a frequent 73 that goes all the way down to UWS When it duplicates... whatever you have going on with the 348 AND the 45 AND the 48 (ik why, ur just wrong) Imagine the reliability

I understand what you were trying to do here but you HAVE to realize there is a less dumb way (the dumb part isnt it getting lost in Magnolia, that I'm broadly fine with)

RapidRide G hit a huge milestone last month seeing 7,325 weekday average boardings Its high water mark is now at over 3,250 riders per mile. A single digit number of cities have a bus line with a ridership per mile half that high and only a few with ridership per mile higher
Bar graph of G line ridership data separated by month, measured in weekday average boardings

Curly has a new idea for light rail fare enforcement as Seattle ranks #1 for ridership: 'No standing, only seats"

We have the chud suburbanite baseball fan vote nothing can stop link, it is uniting political factions, it is the white and blue train mamdani
Person 1: Bro the train is so clutch
can have your last beer in the 7th and be sober enough to drive by the time you get to redmond plus walking from the stadium to chinatown

Person 2: The light rail is pretty great

Here is a more flushed-out opinion It boils down to "see if you can take transit before defaulting to driving"

I live on the 8 and I am a transit advocate in Seattle (im the redhead in the bottom left) The concept of a bus lane was planned but it was neither designed nor being executed until her first Executive Order in January

I'm so incredibly happy we are finally getting bus lanes on Denny. The 8 is one of the most important routes in the system, it is time to treat it that way. Now lets continue making it better @nicksattele.bsky.social @mayorofseattle.bsky.social @alexis4seattle.bsky.social

I love playing the game "guess when the route saw a substantial increase in service" Also, keep in mind, the ridership increase of the route doesn't tell the whole story. Higher frequencies attract new riders and existing riders take more trips. This means other routes benefit through the...

It is ABSURD that there is no SR 509 STX route and no planned SR 509 Stride planned A Stride Line with freeway median stations at Orcas, Cloverdale, 112th, 128th, 136th, and Burien TC would be a gamechanger for transit connectivity in SW Seattle So long as we are extending SR 509...

I keep seeing men button the bottom button and it just looks awful. Look at this and try to imagine what it would look like if he had the bottom one buttoned too

MEN! STOP BUTTONING THE BOTTOM BUTTON OF YOUR SUIT It looks like shit, look how it is pulling awkwardly at the fabric? also if you say "you can if you want" to avoid accepting being wrong, I agree, you can look terrible. However theyre not designed to be buttoned that way

Its absurd that the 24 and 33 dont provide east-west service through SLU along Mercer given how many buses are a super easy transfer to downtown for people in Magnolia Could even send them up to Cap Hill Station
