Man. If you live within the section bypassed by the 22’s bus bridge, welcome to 1 bus every 55 minutes. Outside of Safeway on Church and Duboce, I walked up to a busstop with about 60 people crowding the sidewalk and spilling into the street waiting for a bus that was still 42 minutes to come. So I’m 100% certain that by the time that 22 came, it would already be packed to the gills; as far as taking on another 50 people–please! And the next bus after that was 74 minutes. And this is on the 22–the most heavily traveled cross-town bus. During Pride, wouldn’t it made more sense to run *extra* buses, not waaay less??? Totally ridiculous–why MUNI–why??
