    curious was this before or after covid. the redline runs all the time. It surprises me the express bus could beat it. again though it does depend on bus if its part. Halstead while not quite as good as say belmont does have regular busses running. One thing though is I was using the bus tracker so headed out the first door based on not having to wait long.

      I was a two block walk from where the 135 went express and my work was a two blocks from a bus stop. The red line took longer because is was a >10 minute walk on each end. The brown line stopped closer to my work but still took longer than the bus (without traffic).

      I would usually check the traffic on LSD before heading home and if it was really bad take the L, in the morning traffic was usually not bad enough to where the L was faster.
