Sharing insights from Brenda, Louise, and other riders, we explore the intertwining threads of affordable housing and transit access in Greenville. Our first guest, Brenda, elaborates on her personal struggles with bus schedules and stop placements. Next, we listen to the tale of a rider who had to relocate due to the lack of bus service, demonstrating the urgent need for Transit-Oriented Developments. Finally, we hear Louise's struggle with a fragmented transit network, adding weight to our call for more frequent and wider-reaching service. This episode is a profound reminder that an effective transit system is not just a convenience—it's a lifeline that can dramatically improve quality of life. In sharing these real-life experiences, we aim to foster community support for more buses, more routes, and more frequency. Let's build a better Greenville together.
