Transportation

Public transportation provides great advantages for people in the communities. It is cost efficient, better for environment and encourage physical activity.  In this view, the public transportation contributes to public health.  The public transportation in bay area is better than many other counties. However, I feel that it still need to be improved in public transpiration.   First of all, the number of public transportations is still not enough for many bay areas.  Except for San Francisco, it takes time to wait for next bus if I miss the one I want to take in other bay area.  So I would rather drive in my area instead of using transportation.  Another thing I want to point out is that the cleanliness of the transportation.  I saw the chiars were not clean, so did not want to sit many times.  There are more reasons why people don't want to use the public transportation.  I know it is not easy to improve perfectly due to various reasons like costs and time.  However, more people will use the public transportation when the quality of transportation advances.

  1. Hi Yeana,

    I feel like SF is known for having good public transportation, but I disagree. I have lived in other metropolitan areas, and have found their public transportation areas to be much more efficient and user-friendly. SF has significant improvements to make to its public transportation system.

  2. Hello Yeana,

    Compared to most areas in the United States, the Bay Area has a pretty good public transit system. However, as you point out, there are still gaps in this service. Nonetheless, the benefits of public transit on the environment cannot be ignored. Therefore, it is important that these systems should be improved and expanded, particularly into areas that lack a public transit system. Also, the use of alternative public transit modes, such as light rail and subways, can also greatly reduce people's dependence upon personal vehicles.
