Transit bus

the transportation sector. Unlike the private sector, the public sector doesn't choose its customers; the public sector’s customer is everyone. I care most about making American cities great places to live. This means advancing policies that make transit free for low-income communities, seniors and children. It means advancing policies that…

another, blurred into the steel walls. What was it that separated me from being like them? The school bus lurched forward. We approached closer and closer to yet another stop, where a parent stood waiting in grim expression. Five students stood. If there were ever worst days, this was one of them. I closed my eyes to suspend the watery burn of tears. Eight more stops. Seven. Six. The bus was gradually quieting, as more kids left for their homes, their own sanctuaries. Only four more…

“Now remember, if you need any help or anything make sure to ask. Also make sure you actually talk.” My mom said while pulling into the bus loop. “I will.” I sighed and played with my hands. Today was my first day of fourth grade so I was nervous, but I was even more nervous because I was starting at a new school. People would already stare at me because I was new, but also because I was in a wheelchair and I had a bright pink, smelly, double leg cast. I wore a ugly blue and gray stripped shirt…

Most public schools have a bus system. I only have five weeks left of high school left and i have been riding the bus ever since i can remember. The only time that i didn't take the bus to school was when i was living in new orleans. The reason was because i whent to a charter school. A charter school is a public funded school so it's not built by the state. Most charter schools make you take a test to get into them. This particular school didn't have buses so i had to ride my skateboard to…

My first stop on the hunt for government offices and or buildings in Snyder is the Scurry County Courthouse. I had no problem finding this building due to how it's located in the center of town and all the main roads lead to the "square" where the Courthouse is located. The buildings address is 1806 25th street. Lainey, Ellis and I met at the building so we could take pictures for each other around 5:42 p.m. and there was no one in the parking lot except our own cars, but there was a bit of…

Sitting at the bus stop, feeling the cool concrete beneath his feet, and the chipped, worn down bench, Goober waited anxiously for the bus. Sure, he felt bad leaving Jerry behind, but it would’ve felt worse to stay at a place as evil as Trinity. The bus pulled up, and Goober stepped on the bus. Walking through the aisle, he realized he hadn’t even begun to worry about fitting in at his new school. He’d never been to a public school, and it’s hard to be the new kid as a sophomore. Everyone has…

in any crimes or emergencies that occur throughout the city. The photo shows one of the vehicles, officers use daily. The TTC is a public transportation service in Toronto, Canada. Riders must pay a fare in order to take the transit bus, streetcar, subway or other transit service.The image I used shows one of the buses that picks up passengers. The Toronto Zoo is a great tourism site for Torontonians, as well as any tourists that visits the city. It lets people of all ages to experience…

Dallas was late to build a municipal rail transport system, yet today its DART light rail system is the largest in the United States at a total system length of 85 miles. Troubled by a rocky start, the Dallas Area Rapid Transit authority was faced with the stubborn reluctance of voters to spend any taxpayer money on public transportation infrastructure. However, once the wheels of development started in motion, there was no chance of them stopping. Over the course of 30 years, Dallas went from…

Transit Assignment When I first began the transit assignment challenge, I found it exactly that, a challenge. However, by the end of the week my views and opinions changed. I saw that I was very lucky in my transit taking experiences. Many other people who rely on transit face many more obstacles on a daily basis than I did during this challenge. The first day I took transit was the only day that I cheated. I got a ride home from my swing dance class that night. I chose to do this because I…
