“The bus stop is the front porch of the Metro Transit system,” said Berry Farrington, senior planner at Metro Transit and the Better Bus Stops (BBS) project manager. It is certainly where many Minnesotans start their daily travels. Given the role of the bus stop, Metro Transit believes it is necessary to make these places “safe, secure, and comfortable” for their riders. The BBS engagement process began in March 2016 in an effort to not only add and improve bus shelters across Metro Transit’s service area but to engage with its riders in order to develop better parameters and guidelines for future bus stop investments. The process will end in March 2017.
