TopicMass Transit
ContentI feel that there are alot of improvements that need to me made with regards to mass transit within the Oklahoma City Metro. The bus system that we have is not good enough. Currently, the buses do not operate after 7 pm forcing commuters to find other alternatives that are not always cost effective. Alot of car owners who have expressed interest in using the bus as an alternative means to get to their respective places are put off with the irregularity of this medium of transport and also they may be living in areas not served by buses. Also, when you consider that you would have to ride to the terminal downtown inorder to connect to another bus that would take you to your destination. While this is not entirely a major issue, there still should be an easier way to connect to a different route without necessarily having to go through the terminal. I feel that with an expansion in routes, extended operating hours (including Sundays) and better frequency times, there would definately be an increase in the dependence on mass transit.
