Frustrated with Translink?
hey...this goes out to anyone who takes the 135 SFU every morning (to get to school for a 9:30 or 10:30am class)
...i'm just wondering, are you frustrated with all the FULL buses? Can you even get on a bus? Heck, I get on at Holdom and Hastings and the bus is full then. I really feel for those who try to get on at Duthie and Hastings. THEY DON'T STAND A CHANCE!!
the buses really need to come every 3 or 4 mins during those peak times, not every 6-7mins. Even the bus drivers are frustrated.
so here's the deal. if you're frustrated, send an email to
[email]custrel@translink.bc.ca[/email] PLEASE! if you're not an email person, call 604-953-3040
ask them to send buses more frequently during these peak times. it might not work but at least if they're getting a whole bunch of complaints, they might see that there is a problem.
p.s. this applies to any bus number you take (i.e. the 145 or the 144 or whatever else)
maybe things will die down as more people stop going to their morning classes...but right now...it's pretty ridiculous :angry:
thanx for the vent! :teeth:

I've tried going earlier, but why should I have to leave my house at 6:45am to get to an 8:30 class when I literally live only a 20 min drive away in Port Moody??
If only I had a car... and a B-lot pass...
