Anecdotally, I’ve got some friends on the other side of the river that said much the same and ended up switching to coming into the city via transit, as intended.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’d heard often enough the transit was previously unreliable as far as timing goes. I imagine that presumption has gone quite the way to dissuading people from taking it. Now though, seems like everything is running rather smoothly with the decreased traffic load.
I’m looking forward to see what the transit service is able to do with the funds over the next few years. I hope some of it ends up in the pockets of the operators.
Buses are unreliable, because they get caught in traffic. Trains maybe don’t run as often as we’d like them to, especially at night and on weekends, but my friends and I can rely on them, and they hit most of our frequent destinations anyway.
