Comments on Specific Locations

Location Comment

Rosedale Transit Center

  • Would like the Park-and-Ride back at Rosedale.

Snelling & County Rd B

  • Target needs to make a sidewalk to the Har Mar bus stop.

Snelling & Roselawn

  • Almost nobody uses this stop.

Hamline & Larpenteur

  • An 84 route option to serve as much of Hamline as possible

would be a good idea (a la future Route 83). Hamline & Hoyt

  • Consider restoring the 84 Local to the Hamline/Hoyt area!

Snelling & Nebraska

  • Can you add a stop between Larpenteur and Como, even with

the limitation of the west side boundary of the State Fair?

  • Job Corps span of service later at night.
  • Need stop in the Como-Larpenteur gap!

Snelling & Como

  • A dedicated bike lane is needed along Snelling between Como

and Hewitt (similar to bike bridge along Lexington). Snelling & University

  • The bus stop by the book store is too small for such a high

usage.
