If you compare the SE line to every other line it seems to have a far less neighborhoods that it would service and while I dont travel down there, I cant see a place like Ribverbend or Mackenzie Town being that densely populated.
To summarize, you don't really know but figure thats the case.

Lets add more buses to the roads and make bus only lanes..? Pass
We already have those rapid buses to downtown which people hate. The biggest reason for congestion down here is there isnt really an alternative to driving. Also wouldnt you want decent public transit to the new hospital? Are they supposed to ride the bus for an hour from Anderson or Bridlewood? What a joke, adding regional buses to support people who pay little to no municipal tax.
