I do agree that there aren't a whole lot of riders on the S44 going to St. George, but there still are a reasonable number. When I get on along Richmond Avenue in the afternoons, it usually gets progressively emptier (though at most of the stops there are still some people getting on. I would say it is a 1:2 or 1:3 ratio between people getting on to people getting off)As far as the S44's meandering goes, part of it is for network coverage (the Henderson Avenue area is pretty isolated, so the S44 is pretty much the only bus in the neighborhood), and part of it is to provide a faster route to St. George. Castleton Avenue is the slower route to St. George than Post and Henderson Avenues. |
