Decisions, Decisions: While on Divisadero, Should You Take the Private Bus or the Public Bus (MUNI)?

Mercy sakes alive, it looks like we’ve got ourselves a convoy of buses moving up (or down, if you want, but really, up) Divisadero.

Is this a Genentech bus? Sure looks that way. How many people are riding it every night past 9:00 PM? Maybe just one exec who lives in Pacific Heights? Possibly. Do private bus lines like these mean that bus service in the 415 is becoming reprivatised? Discuss. In Cuba, owners of private cars be required to pick up people waiting at bus stops (particularly in the countryside, when there’s just one road in and out of town) – perhaps we should require private buses to pick up waiting MUNI passengers? Discuss.

Anyway, the recently-widened medians necessitated making the lanes are smaller on Divis. The slow lanes, in particular, are very narrow, considering. Maybe someday, we’ll take that median out.

Maybe someday. (Or repaint the lane dividers to make the fast lane narrower, that would help too.)
