I'm curious about public transit and how it compares to transit in my city. We have a small metro/subway (3 lines) that runs at 10 minute intervals during peak times and 20 minute intervals otherwise. Some of the stations have been renovated recently to make them more uncomfortable to wait at as a way to discourage people who are homeless from using them as shelter. This includes removing the doors from heated waiting areas and only turning the heaters on during the peak ridership times.
We also have buses but with the same issues, service isn't frequent enough, the coverage is not good, and they remove "problem bus shelters" to force homeless people elsewhere.
