Dear Editor: Madison Metro’s No. 80 bus route sounded like a dream come true for a University of Wisconsin-Madison student: A free bus that circles the UW campus and comes around every eight minutes sounds like a blessing since the UW campus is almost 1,000 acres.
Being guaranteed not to have to wait more than eight minutes before another bus arrives means the world when a student is at the bus stop in below-zero temperatures. However, actual experience may bring a change of view of the No. 80 bus route.
