going to the grocery store on a Sunday afternoon feels like entering a PvP arena
It's a footnote in my ongoing study, "BRT is the bus, but for people with more money"
And it's genuinely quite frequent! They used to run artics on it back in the 90s and 80s! It's low-key the same but with Branding

what about the girl'd series and it's just for the ladies
They keep telling me, "the wheels on the bus go round and round," and I keep saying back, "brother, that's not even the third most important thing about bus operations"
if you think about it really hard the blue jays are a Chicago team. which would make me root for them

A trick or treater just panic-stomped a rat to death on our front walk. Incredible Halloween vibes. Blood everywhere
I was so distracted by the whole pedal thing I forgot to post these. Gorgeous day in the Region

Sometimes we black out and Content happens.
I realized that my cranks were stripping right when I was leaving Gary at like 15th & Madison and basically had to just be like "ok"
I am going to be honest this is all entirely my fault. Wednesday night I was overcome with the urge to swap these pedals out for some spare SPDs i had lying around. Immediately cross-threaded them and stripped the cranks. Swapped back to flats. went out today naively thinking "I can ignore this :)"
Make no mistake I'm finishing my ride like this

bro gets one day off and immediately bikes across state lines. relax man
Well, the intersection line answers your question in your favor, I think.
I'm also not sure what headway qualifies as "frequent" yet, but I'm sure the text states. 10"? 15"?
The specifics of the text will dictate the calculation (span of service used to calculate average headway, stop level or route level, any additional steps for transfer locations)
I haven't read the specific text so I'm not much of an authority at this moment. I would say this is typically calculated at the stop level, eg. If two 30 minute frequency routes share a stop, that would be an average of 4 trips per hour. Not typically calculated at the intersection level
Between this Kankakee extension and the Rockford extension we're getting closer and closer to metra just becoming a statewide rail operator. Makes a feller think !
god i feel such relief. i want to buy everybody at the bar a round and everybody a coffee at the cafe
dude, me too. i really believe they were trying to set this up to somehow punt to spring session. this is something i will gladly be proven wrong about
