Look like this rider's comfortable?
This blog was borne out of the frustration many riders feel over the fundamental deficiencies built into the buses bought by the City of Valparaiso and the subsequent shoulder shrug we've received when we try to discuss these issues with the City. No one should have to sit in discomfort for the long ride between Valparaiso and Chicago. Yet that's what we now have to do every day. Do City officials really care about the quality of the services they provide or is it just talk?

The new buses: Where did the common sense go?
The new buses, purchased with $2.4 million of taxpayer funds, have a number of amenities that are primarily useful only on long trips. These amenities include Internet access (via WiFi), power outlets to keep laptops charged, bathrooms, and satellite TV. So WHY did officials approve seats that are perhaps the most uncomfortable I've experienced. These seats are small, crammed, and extreme hard. It's virtually impossible to sit comfortably for an extended period. Where did the common sense go? Let's get these seats fixed.
