    Just fyi for anyone, buses from downtown for the afternoon commute are in a jam again. The 21x I’m on hasnt travelled more than a block in 20 minutes (1st and Columbia).

    Warning. The C-line commute looks exactly like last friday. We can’t turn from 3rd to columbia. Good luck everyone!

    Caught a 56/57 around 415 pm. The bus took 1 hour to go 2 blocks to get from 3rd and columbia down to 1st and columbia. Gridlock. Bus driver finally let us off the bus. Walked down to the water taxi to catch the 525 but the regular boat is out of service today and the replacement, a smaller boat, had already filled up leaving dozens of passengers on the dock. Now waiting for the 605 ferry. This is adding up to a 3 hr commute to Admiral from downtown. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
