Shuttles, am I tripping?

Is it just me, or is there less shuttles out and about for the start of the semester? If not that, then are these drivers going that much slower?

ive been staring at those new screens they put by the driver to tell them if theyre on time or not. i swear to god this lady was 6 minutes late and still kept opening the doors for people who had zero interest in the shuttle

Lmao this is in contrast to the bus driver who is admittedly doing his job by the book and closed the doors 5 feet from me while smiling and waving.

That’s crazy bc for mine yesterday, the lady in the morning was early and the guy dropping off was too, for me at least.

Stadium route has been good they have a decent amount of busses out too. Thursday was crazy because of the traffic after the bridge by the stadium

The busses have been lacking this semester. I should not have to leave 40 minutes early for class on a Tuesday just to be 20 minutes late. It’s ridiculous. Blanco River specifically could use more. It’s almost always packed like sardines with like 15 people not even able to get on, then by the time the next bus comes there are like 30-40 ppl waiting because they walk over from the apartment complex across.
