ryn<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Trimet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trimet</span></a> is on a quest to ruin even more bus lines. Ridership is fed up! Perhaps if you did more about the reason ridership is down instead of destroying routes your existing ridership relies upon, you wouldn't be in this fix. People still don't feel safe and comfortable so people are driving or sharing rides like <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Uber" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Uber</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Lyft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lyft</span></a> Changing/ ruining our treasured routes won't bring them back. I feel for the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/homeless" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homeless</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mentallyill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mentallyill</span></a> but they make people with choices, take other <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/transit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>transit</span></a> options</p>
ryn<p>I'm on a hunt for two or three folks- any of them can help. It seems <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Trimet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trimet</span></a> has a safety issue brewing in the rail crossing at <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Merlo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Merlo</span></a> so I wanna help get this nipped in the bud before I get hurt. I just experienced this when scoping out a complex near the trail. It's appearance isn't as good as Pallas but it is garden walkup</p>
Mario Guzmán<p>Anyone in the Portland area who uses <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TriMet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TriMet</span></a> care to Test Flight my app? It’s a re-write of the currently shipping version of PDX Transit however it is now 100% SwiftUI and uses Swift Data and Swift Concurrency — includes App Shortcuts, Widgets, &amp; a SwiftUI version of PDX Transit for Apple Watch. Also has fun things like on device translations for service alerts and look around in Maps. Unlike the previous version, it has an iPad optimized layout too.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pdxtransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pdxtransit</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/portland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>portland</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/publictransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>publictransit</span></a></p>

Mario Guzmán<p>I ended up adding the large size widget for the single transit stop widget which links you to its service alerts in the app. I’m happy with these. 😊</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/widgetkit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>widgetkit</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/swiftui" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>swiftui</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pdxtransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pdxtransit</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/publictransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>publictransit</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/portland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>portland</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/trimet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trimet</span></a></p>

Mario Guzmán<p>I learned a lot about using <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WidgetKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WidgetKit</span></a> these past 8 days. I created two types of Widgets for <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PDXTransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PDXTransit</span></a> based on the bookmarks you save in the app 😊 Still tweaking the UI though but you get the idea.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/publictransit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>publictransit</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/portland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>portland</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/trimet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trimet</span></a></p>

Agnes<p>I’m always very thankful for our excellent <a href="https://pdx.social/tags/TriMet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TriMet</span></a> + Hop card system (instant reload! automatic day passes!) but especially so when I go back to the Bay and have to deal with the chaotic mess of everything (Caltrain, BART, Muni, SamTrans, VTA… but nothing is automated to save you money) + crappy Clipper card system 🫠</p><p>I just called customer service to get a $20 refund via A CHECK IN THE MAIL because reloading took MULTIPLE DAYS and required “picking up” = physically tagging your card. It’s 2025!</p>

ryn<p>People are walking, riding bikes, using Uber or ride shares etc because of poor service on the 52 line- just wait until March when the complaints cone rolling in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Trimet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trimet</span></a> because you have been so out of touch with what this route needs. Is this Tri or Uni met cuz seriously you sire don't treat all counties equally</p>
ryn<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Trimet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trimet</span></a> is so out of touch- so disconnected on feet on the ground. When they alter the 47 line in March ending at Willow Creek instead of PCC they have this stupid conception that PCC folks will take max to the 67- a once an hour line. Why on earth they think that when the 52 at Willow Creek goes tp PCC. This is already an overloaded route because <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Trimet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trimet</span></a> refuses to return it to frequent service.
