Commuters, what is your current method?

[Railroad]

Take the :katie: method of travel and ride your bike. You could put a cute little honking horn on it and a basket.

And leave tire tracks on my living room rug??!!

I would. But trying to figure out how to strap the carseats on my bike is a bit tricky.

Commuting time is measured in seconds....unless I have to make a pit stop...

 

[onebdzee]

I walk.

Me too!

You could pull them behind you on skateboards. I saw a kid do it on CHiPs once.

I am interested in knowing more about the commuter bus option.

How much does it cost?
Depends. You have to figure out what "zone" you are in here

How long does it take in comparison to driving?
It adds about 10-15 minutes to your travel time, due to the # of stops the bus makes.

How are the people?
Generally pleasant, but I'm antisocial and never talked to anyone when I rode.

Is there a bathroom?
Yes, but you really don't want to use it unless you absolutely can't wait until you get home.

Does anyone know about the ones that travel along Rt 4?
I don't think any of them make stops in Upper Marlboro.

TIA

Aren't there some programs that pay govt. workers to use public transportation?

Well I have been told that we can get a shuttle called The Bus at the Equestrian Center for no charge. It goes directly to our building but I haven't heard of any other offerings.

Working from home is an excellent option to have.

Thanks for the answers. yeah, I kind of figured it had one and I imagine how the people who get stuck back there feel.

10-15mins is not bad at all. You are right I don't see it often but I have seen it more than once, commuter buses along Rt 4. I think one of the stops is at about the Routes 2/4 intersection.

Dillon buses stop at the Equestrian Center..All of the beach people(North,Chesapeake) ride Dillon buses. The 2/4 intersection is serviced by Keller buses and Keller buses do not stop at Upper Marlboro as far as I know.

If gas hits 5 bucks a gallon, Ill be selling my Ranger and buying another motorcycle... I was getting like 35-40 mpg on it...

I get 35MPG with my Focus. That's why I bought it. Cheap(ish) car with high gas milage.
