      <![CDATA[The 71 in the morning is a fucking joke.  It's always running behind, which makes the connection to the 4 even more frustrating (thanks for making me late to work all the time).<br>

Finally got some decent winter riding gear and am now biking to work.  The bus can suck it.

      <![CDATA[Yeah, it's pretty lousy when you're waiting up to 20 minutes on a "frequent service" line, only for two (sometimes three) buses to show up back-to-back. The #72 is often guilty of this, especially in the morning.

      <![CDATA[Yeah, the 15 often has to turn away passengers in the morning closer to downtown, and in the evening before it leaves downtown.  I didn't think it was affected by the service cuts, but I swear three months ago it wasn't this bad in the mornings.

      <![CDATA[While I think these statistics are sort of neat, they don't really go into how difficult Trimet has made it to move around since moving some bus routes. For example, they took the 6 off of Lombard because it makes no sense really to have 3 bus lines running up the same road. Great, but to transfer from the 75 to the 6 to get on the bus that services MLK now oftentimes includes wait times of up to 20 minutes. Sort of ridiculous.

      <![CDATA[I take the 15 every day. For me, it's fine going downtown b/c I live on 90th and I'm the first one on. By the time it gets downtown it's pretty full. But evening rush hour is when it's really crowded. You know they need to run more busses when every bus from 5-7 is over capacity and it's standing room only.
