Not until buses go the places I want to go. Some places do planning well, many do not.
In case it was not clear, the physical bus is not my issue. The routes are my issue.
Edit: ignoring the strange troll, but clarifying. I think some level of customer driven dynamic routes will be helpful. Central planners have limited knowledge about where I work or the times I need to be there.
I don’t but they’re not wrong about the transit. I live in a row home within 6 miles of the Minnesota state capital building, the state the user you’re replying to is from.
No, the Twin Cities has highly ranked mass transit in the United States. That doesn’t mean it’s great, it instead speaks to how poor mass transit is in the US.
The Met Council and partners are working to improve and make it better but they’ve got a long way to go.
I’d love to get rid of my car and use the mass transit, I hate driving. As it currently is though I’ll be better served when I buy an e-bike this coming spring and use that to get around instead.

Do you live in a detached single-family home in a neighborhood of detached single-family homes?

Sorry to ruin your gotcha moment.
Twin Cities has great transit. Is it just that wherever you’re going requires a transfer?
