Post3: What is your opinion of Transantiago?




I think Transantiago is better than yellow buses system, because I think it’s more organized (the routes and colors of the different kinds of buses like Orange in Vitacura, Las Condes and Lo Barnechea communes and troncales who crosses almost all the city) and modern (the Bip! card it’s a good example, or the GPS system in some buses). I think the tariffs are a little bit expensive, but it’s the governments way to weigh the not pay of some users.
When the yellow buses system where active I have to walk a lot, because I don’t have a bus stop near my home, and usually I have to take more buses to get to the places that I want to go. In other way, I don’t know so much routes because I don’t have a place to search, I have to ask to someone else. Now, I have the information that I need at www.transantiagoinforma.cl, the routes, the different kinds to go to the different places, I have to pay just one time to get to the place that I want and I have a bus stop near my house, and I now exactly what buses passed there.
The changes I want to apply would be more GPS systems, new busses (more comfortable), more metro lines, more frequency buses and more routes and bus stop. Other thing that I want to change would be more places to charge the Bip! card.

Well, I have to go now
Greetings!

I think Danita is right saying that the system need more GPS's, because people should now how many time wait for the next bus.
