Opinion: Improved bus, pedestrian infrastructure needed to build on Mid-Coast Trolley's success [Opinion]
Many popular destinations adjacent to the Mid-Coast Trolley lack infrastructure that would allow Mid-Coast riders to seamlessly arrive at their destinations once they get off the trolley. It is akin to building a freeway without adequate on- and off-ramps. The freeway may pass by where you want to go, but without the necessary ramps, you cannot actually make it to your desired destination. Improving bus and pedestrian connections would go a long way towards maximizing the Mid-Coast Trolley.
Similarly, the Mid-Coast Trolley Extension connects to many bus routes at the UTC Transit Center. Among those are the 41 and the 105, which connect the University City and Clairemont communities. These buses are often stuck in heavy traffic on Genesee Avenue at peak hours. Workers and students who travel on these buses must endure long commute times and unreliable service as a result.
Pedestrian access also needs improvement, as pedestrian connections to nearby amenities are often indirect, unsafe and unfriendly. For example, the Clairemont Drive station is located less than half a mile from Mission Bay. Even so, there is no good way for a trolley rider to walk to Mission Bay from this station.
