A day in Nick’s #WeekWithoutDriving journey: From Westchester to Downtown Miami ??? Our Public Affairs Manager faced the real challenges of commuting today. The first bus came 10 minutes early, and the second was a ‘ghost bus’ that never showed up, forcing a last-minute Uber to make it on time. ???? This experience highlights why we’re passionate about improving Miami’s transit. We’re calling for: ? Better connectivity across the county ? Increased reliability ? Improved performance While public transit isn’t always perfect, it’s crucial for many. Missed buses and unexpected Uber rides create financial burdens for those dependent on public transportation. We’re committed to advocating for a system that works for everyone, every day. Join us in pushing for positive changes! ???? #Carfree #publictransit #miamitransit #miamibus #publictransportation #miamidadetransit #miamilife
