Heads up 🚌 Rock Region METRO is running routes 3, 4 and 22 more often starting Mon Nov 16. The 22 on University Ave goes from every 60 min to every 35 on weekdays, and every 30 on Saturdays πŸ™Œ

Streetcar gets a new winter schedule too, every 20 min πŸš‹ and it stays free ❀️

Not so fun: base fare goes from $1.35 to $1.50 in January and transfers go away πŸ˜•

Anybody ride the 22 much? 🚍✨

Don't ride the 22, but I'm on University a lot and those buses run mostly empty midday. Every 35 minutes is a weird interval, though. Easier to plan around if it was 30 flat. Still, going from hourly is a real improvement if you're counting on it to get to work.

The transfer thing bugs me more than the fare bump. Anybody who has to take two buses to get across town is basically paying double now. Glad the streetcar stays free, at least.
