My husband <br />drives to the UNC bus terminal near Cole Park Raza every weekday for work. <br />He would have gladly taken the Rttsboro to Chapel Hill bus, but it traveled <br />during non business hours, which made no sense. I also would have used it for <br />my frequent tripsto Chapel Hill, but again, the hourswere strange, and the <br />time allowed to be in Chapel Hill wasvery short. I also traveled to Raleigh <br />frequently for work, and commuted for years. There are so many who do, <br />and I would have so appreciated a commuter bus to Raleigh and back. It would <br />have to run at realisticwork hours though. 1 (2 %) <br />Triangle Area FFO Locally Coordinated Human Service Transportation Ran 67 <br />
