The 30-year Transit Tomorrow plan for public transportation in greater Portland is commendable. But I wish the planners who came up with the proposed METRO Peninsula Loop Reboot shared the same vision.
By detouring the No. 8 bus route away from West End housing, Congress Street, and the Hannaford store on Forest Avenue they are definitely not making “public transportation easier to use, more convenient, accessible and reliable.” If you use METRO, I urge you to look up your route and voice your concerns.
