but i never knew about headways and about runtime and also affecting taxpayers money, but we need some help reducing the crowding and also promoting these idea and future bus routes that people never knew about.

 

P.S: T.A. Way is tuskegee airmen way (south road) i just feel weird not calling it south road. when i use the term "acts" i meant it runs on the line of the current or former buses. and yes most of my routings will upset most of the community boards and i understand about the fuel emissions (if someone is environmental friendly)

Better you than me. I'm getting a headache trying to read all of that, especially since the English is poorly written.

@Via Garibaldi 8 I have simply explained it by using abbreviations that people use for streets, (ex.: Blvd= boulevard, Av/ave=avenue, St= Street, ln=lane, fwy= Freeway, etc.). Also, I was up from 12:45 am to almost 6 am writing every route and the directions to the point that I have to abbreviate certain words like r (R)= right turn or l (L )= Left turn. So I won't end up writing worse than I already have (was writing this on 20% efficiency) . I'm sorry that my English structure sucks (Math and finance is my favorite subject which I have passed) and my computer keys are sticking . But I'm more of the visual aid-type person but the drawing app for google maps gave me a huge headache than writing the directions word for word. When I write act like a certain existing route, I meant to say parallel to the route until a certain street that the creative route or an existing route branched off from each other. Also when i write Dest. A to Dest. B of an creating route and its common sense that i write Dest. B to Dest. A its the opposite of the other route except for certain specifics if its a one way street or etc. and originally this topic should be deleted but like i told every senior moderator, I'm new to this forum and instead of busting my chops, lets work together and help me structure my bus ideas a little better. So that I won't make this mistake again.

Your abbreviations aren't an issue for me. If you're going to write long sentences, consider adding commas here and there. Reading run-ons is a PITA, especially if you don't have the paragraphs broken up. I'm not busting chops. If you want responses to your ideas, I suggest you do those things going forward. It would help with the flow of conversations here.

I understand what you have said and I completely agree. As I reiterated again, I was on 20% efficiency when i wrote this forum. Compared of me being on 80% efficiency right now. Next time, when I write a future forum I will be at least 85% efficiency; so that its easier for all parties to not only understand, but they can comment.
