It's a great idea. Let's do it!

Should work. Add a pillow on one end and a folded blanket on the other. Perfect for lawrence.

Boo! Perhaps you've never waited a long time for a bus, but its a lot nicer with a bench.

There are free schedules everywhere? WHy wait so long??
MarcoPogo 3 months, 2 weeks ago
Having a schedule doesn't mean squat if you're having to switch buses or wait for a return trip after you've finished whatever you're out doing. Nice try, though.

You might try funding your own transportation or using a cab? Just a thought.
Something provided free or at a loss and leeches whine about it... go figure. Guess this is the entitlement mentality.

I was wondering this same thing. It would be great to get benches at more stops.

They should all have heated/air conditioned huts with laptops, Internet access, cable and free soda/snacks.
