There also seem to be some stops that are too close together on some of the lines, like the CCT (Shady Grove to Clarksburg). How far apart are the orange line buses? How frequently do they run?Peony201https://www.blogger.com/profile/09704649849239092104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30306615.post-51212490915506896172012-10-23T20:20:52.093-04:002012-10-23T20:20:52.093-04:00I think the shared lanes are only a problem if you...I think the shared lanes are only a problem if you assume that the county intends to build the entire, gold-plated, 16-route BRT system envisioned by the task force. For instance, there really is no need to run BRT down Georgia past either the Glenmont or Wheaton stations. Similarly, you may not need BRT into downtown Bethesda. A Colesville road route would need to go into Silver Spring, but it could be run on the curb lane. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
