I am concerned about the ever increasing size of our buses. They take up to much of the road and frankly are not necessary for all routes. In fact very few of our buses are even half full in the summer. Let's go back to smaller more fuel efficient buses and reduce the stress on cyclists and drivers.... Not to menton they are an eyesore......

We need More "Bicycle" Paths, which are well used when available by walkers, joggers, electric wheel chairs, and even Bicyclists.
