People poll: What do you think of bus service in S. Dade?
"I find the buses pretty good, but it's difficult to get from the University of Miami where I work, and home. The last few times, I've waited 20 minutes and the bus never came. It definitely needs to be more systematic in its scheduling." Dr. Robert Kelley SW 125th Terrace "It's a good idea to ride the bus. The people I know like them, and say they're quite handy. But my children usually pick me up." Mrs. Clarence Rice SW 124th Street "I'd be very upset if I had to ride the bus. The service is inadequate, and I've heard a lot of complaints. If you don't have a car, there's no way to get out to where I live." Larry Sorge SW 8th Street "The bus system is very inadequate in all of Dade County. It's very difficult for people who want to go downtown or to any of the colleges from here. We need a good solution to the transportation problem." Helen Maddox SW 90th Avenue "I would have problems if I had to ride the bus regularly. I work in Coral Gables, and I'd have to transfer several times to get there." Susan Gascholl 10652 SW 77th Ave.
