Apparently the diesel - electric buses enter into a "regeneration" cycle under idle to somehow clean out the soot particulates in the diesel exhaust system. Hot exhaust burns out the soot, right? It stinks all to high hel** and fills the cabin with what smells like CO - filled exhaust. I fear being asphixiated while waiting for the warm bus to begin it's route. I open a couple of windows everytime I board.
Is this an exhaust leak, or is pumping hot regenerative soot exhaust gases including CO into the cabin, er.. normal? This smells awful and scares me everytime I ride a bus in these conditions.
Please provide proof this is not a danger or remedy this nasty smelling problem.

This light has been out for several weeks and makes it unsafe to walk in this area when it is dark outside. Light is located near the bus lane closest to the Transit Center.

It’s worth talking to the driver of BT bus #1337 route 9L headed west on 3rd at 3:45pm. Their driving was alarmingly aggressive.

Busses keep stopping here and sit for like an hour. It creates a blind turn where someone could get seriously injured or killed. Please tell busses to not park here.

City busses keep parking here and block a blind turn. They sit there for hours not moving an inch. The dude I saw that was parked there was reading a book in the drivers seat. There is a bus stop up the road. why not park there? Parking at my marked location just created an incredibly dangerous situation where only one car can fit past the bus in a blind turn. Ive almost been hit several times because of people rounding the corner too fast and realizing that there is a bus blocking the two way street. I dont know why but the4y sit there for HOURS. there are definitely safer places to park during their breaks. Please fix this issue, I dont want to have an accident there.

Bus 11 specifically has always had issues with their atlas on 17th route. This time after pulling to the side giving PLENTY of room for the bus to pass, the driver stopped and demanded I park my car so she can have the entire road to herself. The amount of times I’ve almost been hit by this specific bus the past 2 years because the drivers are genuinely horrible I cannot explain. How do these people have B class licenses? This happened at 4:44PM on October 19th. By law I am NOT required to give 2 entire lanes so that a driver that is supposed to be trained to drive on these roads can have it to themselves. I will reiterate, this has happened SEVERAL times. D

Arrived at bus stop on Allendale at appointed time. Bus should be there by 2:34 pm. Waited until 2:40 and then searched `Spot'. According to Spot, the bus was at the maintenance facility. Then I checked website. Website was down. Then I called BT and asked for representative. The call was dropped without being answered. Will be contacting my city council rep about this one...
