Sadly, if there had been rules, he would have ignored them anyway.

This isn't over yet! We're not down with this, and we're not letting the mayor hide behind city bureaucracy either.

Come show up with the Transit Riders Union this Saturday morning, and bring tell a friend!

Not just any bus lane. One of the most necessary lanes on the only BRT project in Seattle that got much of its required lanes set aside on day one.

I doubt he's ever set foot in Portland either.

kinda wish they would clean the stations now and then too. Its kind of weird how dirty they are whenever I visit.

Sound transit is absurdly bad at estimating train times for reasons most transit advocates don't really understand.

The service is usually decent though (for a west coast US city)

If its anyone currently in Dem leadership, I fully expect they will again use all the tools at their disposal... to punish their own voters and do nothing to punish the law breakers on the other side.

Bank style security windows at the entrance.

Some lie onlIne and pretend to be normal hotels.

The walls can often be so very thin.

There might be a fire escape crane hidden behind the window curtain, waiting to clobber you in the knee as you walk past said window.

I like how hallucinations is itself a hallucination.

Well the railroads appear to oppose electrification too so even that is an uphill battle.

Just getting to a usable frequency would be a start...

Sounder needs a lot of love to be a decent bypass.

More frequency, better reinforcement on the cliffs, better grade separation...
