1. They really shouldn't have stripped so many bus routes.

Riding Sound Transit has been a consistently bad experience for me. My former 15 minute commute is now 40 minutes. When track maintenance is required, which seems to be often, passengers are offloaded or service is reduced. The trains don't have the same seating capacity as buses. Many trips require a transfer where you could previously just take one bus, and the stops are not near where people live

They could solve this problem for now by working with Metro to restore certain routes like the 41, but they won't.
