Wherever you go in America, the two means of public transportation inside any city is
1. metro train(Amtrack/Metrolink)
2. Bus service.
I had heard that bus transportation in California is very difficult. People told me "California is bad when it comes to transportation". I realized it only when I started going to Office in bus. When it comes to bus service, Foothill Transit is the only service provider. We have direct bus to Office from our residence area. Still, this is a express bus which goes on Arrow highway. The frequency of this bus is only one bus in half an hour. Also this bus runs from wee hours of the morn till 9pm. I must say we are lucky to have a bus in every half an hour. Mostly in every other area, the buses are available only once in an hour. There will be no bus after 6:30pm. This may be because people prefer to use their own cars and less people use this facility. Quite possible.
I am annoyed with the noise pollution these Foothill transit buses make in Los AngelesIndia, very old buses which are quite inefficient will not make this much noise. These Foothill Transit buses are posh. Interiors are too good. I must say I am in a village in America. The areas are so peaceful. There will be pin drop silence. In the midst, when we hear this bus noise, one can imagine the extent to which my mindset will get disturbed.
Not only buses, all the vehicles here make a lot of noise. When we stand on a freeway, we will hear the noise and the intensity of it.
I wish a day will come in which these Buses/vehicles will run without noise. Hopefully!!!!!! county. Most of the times I wonder even in
