Transit Visions And Revelations
Why didn't the recent bus strike in Honolulu "clog the freeways." Does this mean transit's share of the solution is less than it was sold to be?
"On the other hand, buses have a traffic congestion causing ability all their own. Other vehicles tend to avoid the curb lane on streets where buses are frequent because they would spend too much time stuck behind buses at stops. On some major arterials it effectively takes the curb lane out of general service."
