Metro Transit should be ashamed of themselves and they need to clean up the bus stops. I think its horrible that they have people of all ages standing in the dangerous street waiting for their buses. Come on, hire some temps to clean the stops, ALL OF THE STOPS!!!!!!

Perhaps the Northstar isn’t faring as well because it is expensive, noisy and inconvenient, with no midday trips. I’ll stick with the bus, thank you very much.

I’ve stopped driving in to work downtown St. Paul and taking the bus from the parking ride, it’s saving me in gas, parking and sanity. When the lightrail between St. Paul and Minneapolis is complete I plan to take advantage of that too, glad to see ridership is up.

Metro Transit is NOT responsible for shoveling the bus stops. The city is

Once there is a light rail between Minneapolis and St Paul, Northstar ridership might go up. Now it is only really convinient for Minneapolis workers. Once that expands to more cities the ridership will go up. I do believe that they need more times as well. Make in convienient for people going to the airport, or other sporting events in the Metro.

I live in St. Paul and CANNOT wait for the day that the light rail is up and running between St. Paul and Minneapolis. As of now I have no reason to go to either one because of the cost and the quality of the parking in both cities.

I’m hugely in favor of mass transit and love the idea of light rail, but my God how did they ever expect the Northstar route to make a go of it? The schedule is absolutely ridiculous with just limited service. The public officials behind that idea need to go.

I believe that more people will be riding the bus as the gallon of gas continues to soar!!
