"We have 50,000 students who have access to the bus system, but the general population is also choosing to use transit because of the transportation crisis in Utah County. People are finding the roads clogged and they are looking more toward mass transit as a way to get out of the congestion and allow someone else to do the driving." The new service was requested by bus riders, he said Those who ride the traditional TRAX connectors "are standing on top of each other,'' he said. "They wanted more buses on those routes." Emily Hall of Murray said she has taken the new bus every day since it debuted. A BYU stu- -' dent who lives in Salt Lake County, she had been taking the traditional TRAX connector buses, which took longer. "The service is awesome," - she said, "It's just nice not to -have to worry about driving down here traffic kind of wears you down. This is more convenient." The bus used to go from Salt Lake to Provo and went back to Salt Lake empty to start the route again, Anson said. By extending the bus route, transit planners were able to add another TRAX connector bus without paying for another bus or driver. Christine Baird of Provo said she relies on the bus because she cannot drive. On Wednesday, she took the new 817 bus for the first time, riding it from BYU to Salt Lake City, where she is taking a class, "I admit I've become a little spoiled" by the bus system, she said. "It's a great service." ' Every person who takes a commuter bus means one less car traveling on the freeway between Utah and Salt Lake coun' ties, said Hugh Johnson of UTA. The new 817 bus service "is catching on," said bus driver Rick Wright. "More and more people ride it every day." . - |
