I am a senior citizen and a longtime rider of the People Mover bus system. I agree with Andrew Halcro in his recent op-ed, where he said that there were many problems inside the downtown transit center.
But closing the transit center, while a simple solution, was not all good. My chief complaint is that we legitimate bus riders must now wait for our buses outdoors in the winter cold. Before the closure, I frequently patronized the coffee stand inside and enjoyed espresso while waiting in warmth for my bus. There are no longer any retail businesses there.
