i wonder about the 26 bus, he didn't say anything about 26 bus or 18 bus. he never said anything about 74 bus or towards the bart station on 29 bus. he never said none of those bus. he never said nothing about those buses yes, it's more crowded on that buses too, but later the nighttime i don't know what is going on with that nighttime. and if they do have r run. it reminds me the transit what they always do have from 5:00 a.m. to all day to 7:00 p.m. at night and as the bus is running, two buses back-to-backo you are riding this other bus. that's what i wonder. will you please explain to us about the other buses that i just named and the reason is it changing the bus line, the 18 and 23. would you please explain it. thank you. >> thank you, is there any other public comment on this issue? >> hello. my name is wendy. i have a comment and a suggestion. as a lot of us who doesn't speak english has -- imprinted the bus number and the limited now changed to rapid. especially on the lines changing numbers, people think the way they have been for years, okay. my

can't get on a crowded bus because many times bus drivers will skip you or push you out because they don't want you behind the yellow line so there is an issue with equity here and the 29 is serving many schools here but the time to stop isn't enough because the run time is eight to 10 minutes and that time isn't enough because most of the students really want to take the bus at a certain time to get to school. for us at lowell we get to school around 730 or 725 and get to school at the time and many take it at balboa park so we don't have enough time to take it and another issue when we go home from school we -- at lowell we have all of the other schools before us and we get off at 330 and two schools being very crowded so i want you guys to please increase the amount of buses running in the morning and the afternoon to help increase the amount of ridership and ensure that we get to home and school on time. thank you. >> thank you. >> hello everyone. i am stephanie and i am a youth leader at ccdc so there are many bus routes that bring students to school, but then the problem is how
