I felt like I’d walked into a BRU member’s fantasy when I left work and saw a solid line of buses, two lanes thick, block after block down Figueroa. What a nightmare – they were all jockeying for a position along the curb by 7th St/Metro Center.
Glad I avoided downtown yesterday; I went around it differently
A lot of confusion and inaccurate information from everyone at Metro today.
