For the individual transit rider or for the muni vehicle . At appears that the proposal are for the vehicle to get to point a to point b at the sacrifice of the passenger to get from starting point a to their final destination point b. Elimination of stops. This means that the individual rider will have to walk a greater destination and the time it takes to walk from the discontinued stop this does not help the individual getting from point a to point b and this certainly hinders the elderly, the disabled and parents with small children by eliminating stops. One of the best features of muni it has convenient stops for its ridership, but yet, that seems to be in jeopardy. Please note it will still take the same amount of time for a passenger to board and disembark a vehicle whether its at one stop or another. So its not a major savings by eliminating stops. The other element, stoping to pick up passengers and blocking lanes. Every time a bus stops it blocks a traffic lane and that will
