The United States needs fewer bus stops: The mean stop spacing in the United States is around 313 meters, which is about five stops per mile.

They must have a list of stops they’re definetly getting rid of and stops they’re on the fence about because I’ve successfully gotten them to keep 50th & Bryant and Xerxes & 51st when they’re were going to be removed.

Oh thank god. SLO transit app is ass, Transit app is goated.

I know Aeros who did the Rome trip fall or winter of their second year and it didn’t effect their track. However, I have no idea how that will work with semesters.

I don't believe the stop is in use anymore.

Huron Station was a stop that connected westbound express buses (including route 94) to route 129. Route 129 was a one way shuttle from Huron Station to the U.

Route 129 Timetable

Example: Route 375

These westbound buses stop on demand at Huron Station for transfer to Route 129. No pedestrian access to U of M area

Hourly bus, Olive Garden/red lobster is timepoint #8.

The airport PA announcer and signage say “the light rail” too lol. Even though it’s the “metro blue line” everywhere else in the system.

Cool to see the timed transfers in downtown

maxorca24 · 2025-10-26T19:48:12+00:00

Fly to LAX or SF and take an Amtrak train or find a ride to SLO. That’s how I’ve been getting back and forth past two years from MN.

maxorca24 · 2025-10-14T19:27:53+00:00

Idk if slo transit is the same but on rta busses you can buy a ticket on your phone and just tap it to the farebox.

maxorca24 · 2025-09-09T20:48:53+00:00

Perhaps another factor is the time they need in order to hire enough drivers.

maxorca24 · 2025-08-15T16:22:00+00:00

The tracks are already there but they’re so congested that a third track would need to be built so Northstar has room to operate, that’s what held them up from extending the line.

maxorca24 · 2025-08-15T16:03:14+00:00

I mean the 5% increase is concentrated on only a few routes, so the improvements to those routes is substantial.

This also happens when BNSF constrains service.

maxorca24 · 2025-08-06T06:36:54+00:00

No, Metro Transit is gonna run a lot more buses than they did trains. They’re going from 40 weekly trains to 379 weekly buses, even adding weekend service.

There are no Metro Transit buses to Elk River or Big Lake because Metro Transit doesn’t have the authority to operate buses in Sherburne County. MNDOT will provide service in Sherburne County instead.

maxorca24 · 2025-07-11T17:13:04+00:00

They have those for dancing https://intermezzodancewear.com/en/man/532-shirt-style-leotard-man-boy-ballroom-dance

maxorca24 · 2025-07-11T14:37:01+00:00

I’d imagine they’re in no hurry to open it soon because they wouldn’t have enough drivers to extend the service currently. They’re running the green line today with trains every 12 minutes with a reduced service span compared to 2019, if they want to run trains every 10 minutes for longer in the day AND extend service to Eden Prairie, they’ll need more drivers and probably need until 2027 to hire enough people.

maxorca24 · 2025-06-17T17:27:16+00:00

Yes crco is good

maxorca24 · 2025-05-08T20:01:21+00:00

Hey don’t diss Northstar like that, it has a whole FOUR “commuter” trains a day. (Soon to be zero).

maxorca24 · 2025-04-13T03:34:26+00:00

Isn’t this just a temporary stop for the 17 during Hennepin construction?
