It is so ridiculous to me to that the city won’t do WHATEVER IT TAKES to improve the WRTA. Granted, the powers that be at the WRTA also have to do the work to get what they need to improve (hint hint: get more federal & state funding. Baker vetoed a bill that would increase RTA funding BTW)

The WRTA ain’t perfect, but if it ran more frequently and late into the evening that would be transformative for this city.

We would 100% take the bus to polar park (for us it would be a 5 minute walk to the bus stop, 5 minute ride, and 8/10 minute walk to the park). The only reason we can’t is it doesn’t run in the evening. So instead, we drive 7 minutes, pay $10 for parking, and still walk that same 8/10 minute route.

It’s so much nicer to experience the Canal District without having to think about parking the car.

Less money to the cops. More money to the bus system. Simple and effective.
