Why do they keep insisting on trying to shove the EmX on us? EmX is nothing but a HUGE waste of money when all that may be needed is some more routes using already existing buses. If they need more bus routes going there then schedule them, but as to EmX??? No!!

Did you know that there are 42 seats and 3 interior bike rack on the EMX, on the conventional size bus there are 40 seats, 3-4 racks and sometime few are allowed inside. I wonder what kind of mileage do they get,plus carbon monoxide produced in a month, oilchange?$ etc. We need transportation like Bart or the high speed rail above the city like in Vegas, we are simply going back in time with this archaric bus system. Dang dirty shame and an unpractical mode of transportation-clinging to past failures that stagnats, causes more congestion, the fare only comtinues rise.

EMX is a waste of money and resources, no matter where it goes. How about this, save the money and congestion, have more bus service from Eugene and Springfield, and stop the nonsense which LTD engages in to try to get this boondoggle off the ground.

Going to LCC it will be just like the Franklin route: a glorified school bus. That is all its good for, besides upsetting the majority. Also, maybe going out there, the resulting Environmental Assessment will comply with the National Environmental Policy Act! LTD has LIED about the West Eugene extension, where the EA violates the NEPA!
