A bus came by with absolutely no signs on it. I thought that it was out of service but the driver stopped and shouted that it was a no. 53. I rode it it for quite a way and the female driver made every stop and yelled out &quot;53&quot;. Doesn't someone at Metro think that it is a little assinine &nbsp;to tout all these Metro miracles and not even have destination signs on the busses operating? This is an everyday occurance. Whoever is in charge of this should be fired immediately.</p> <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.ridemetro.org/> http://blogs.ridemetro.org/blogs/write_on/archive/2009/04/29/METRO-Matters-Schedule-on-Houston-Media-Source.aspx#7812Thu, 30 Apr 2009 02:15:17 GMTd28ebc89-27af-41e7-9b5c-0c1b3d1b56ff:7812DominicMazoch<p>I see something even worse on the 108. &nbsp;he problem with the 108 is that it has 3 northen enpoints (FM 1960, Seton Lake P&amp;R, N. shep. P&amp;R). &nbsp;One of the Fallbrook ops has paprer signs on the windows of the doors:</p> <p>&quot;N. Shepherd Only&quot;</p> <p>(inside the cirle with the diagional bar) Seton Lake</p> <p>[Translation: &nbsp;No Seton Lake]</p> <p>(inside the circle with the diagonal bar) FM 1960</p> <p>[Translation: &nbsp;No FM 1960]</p> <p>This route needs to be3 divited into 3 routes:</p> <p>101: &nbsp;N. Shep. ONLY</p> <p>108: &nbsp;N. Shep. to 1960</p> <p>109: &nbsp;N, Shep. Seton Lake</p> <p>Then again, somebody might ask if the 108 goes to Jackrabbit Road. &nbsp;In fact it is true, in a sense. &nbsp;From 290 to K'dahl, 1960 and FM 1960 were the same road. &nbsp;As that area grew up, the 'rabbit term fell out of favor. &nbsp;West of 290, SH 6 and Jackrabbit use different ROW's a a small part of the 'rabbbit remains.</p> <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.ridemetro.org/> http://blogs.ridemetro.org/blogs/write_on/archive/2009/04/29/METRO-Matters-Schedule-on-Houston-Media-Source.aspx#7813Thu, 30 Apr 2009 02:30:50 GMTd28ebc89-27af-41e7-9b5c-0c1b3d1b56ff:7813wi11ie<p>Unfortunately..</p> <p>Metro only has 1 (count 'em one) person at each facility that can work on RADIOS and DESTINATION SIGNS.</p> <p>If that isn't the most idiotic thing ever I do not know what is...</p> <p>At Fallbrook this week our radio/Dest. sign guy is on vacation...</p> <p>So guess what?</p> <p>We're boned if anything doesn't work.</p> <p>Incredible forethought Administration!</p> <p>What we need is 1 guy fueling buses and the other 20 washing and sweeping.</p> <p>A clean bus would be an improvement!</p> <p>wi11ie</p> <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.ridemetro.org/> http://blogs.ridemetro.org/blogs/write_on/archive/2009/04/29/METRO-Matters-Schedule-on-Houston-Media-Source.aspx#7814Thu, 30 Apr 2009 04:28:56 GMTd28ebc89-27af-41e7-9b5c-0c1b3d1b56ff:7814C<p>Well they need to take that &quot;Now hiring&quot; and phone number message off of the front of those destination signs.</p> <p>I boarded the wrong 40 route because I couldn't see the sign.</p> <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.ridemetro.org/> http://blogs.ridemetro.org/blogs/write_on/archive/2009/04/29/METRO-Matters-Schedule-on-Houston-Media-Source.aspx#7822Fri, 01 May 2009 01:04:26 GMTd28ebc89-27af-41e7-9b5c-0c1b3d1b56ff:7822wi11ie<p>Dom,</p> <p>How about 107,108,109?</p> <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.ridemetro.org/> http://blogs.ridemetro.org/blogs/write_on/archive/2009/04/29/METRO-Matters-Schedule-on-Houston-Media-Source.aspx#7848Tue, 05 May 2009 13:30:37 GMTd28ebc89-27af-41e7-9b5c-0c1b3d1b56ff:7848Cedric Collins<p>C said: &nbsp;&quot;Well they need to take that &quot;Now hiring&quot; and phone number message off of the front of those destination signs.</p> <p>I boarded the wrong 40 route because I couldn't see the sign.&quot;</p> <p>Whether or not you ride the 40 often, ever heard of waiting until the sign goes back to displaying the route name/number? &nbsp;Perhaps you could of asked the B/O what 40 route this is BEFORE boarding? </p> <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.ridemetro.org/>
