The Big Bus Experiment, Phase I
After some compulsory prodding of Marc on my part, we finally got off today (at the astonishingly early departure of 2:00pm) on our bus adventure. My goal was to test certain routes to HCC and UH and to assess their efficiency.
Of course, the suggestions on Metro's trip planner were ridiculous. Ridiculously ineffecient.
Here's the way to go:
(82 or my truck) to Hillcroft Transit Center
163 Fondren Express (DIRECTLY to Mid-town... Woo-hoo) to Lousiana/Smith
Marc goes to school, I catch 42 across Hood-town to UH
Rinse and repeat in reverse.
It was pretty quick to get home in rush hour. 45 minutes. I still think we will just carpool and take the HOV lanes.
