I like the addition of local POIs to the automated stop announcement on the Red Line @metrolosangeles |

@metrolosangeles Love the new destination announcements on the Metro Red Line…”Exit here for the Grand Central Market and Angels Flight” |

@metrolosangeles #nextbus is great, but lately it’s been wildly erratic. Disappearing buses, fluctuating arrival times. Needs a reboot. |

@metrolosangeles seriously fix your gps. i’m late to work again bc of it. “704 in 3 mins.” & came in 12. gps said it was “arriving” twice. |

Fantastic. According to #Nextrip, the 108 will be here in 5 minutes, making it a total of 10 minutes late. #metrolosangeles |

Why does LA’s @LADOTtransit have a free, easy BlackBerry site for the Dash buses but @MetroLosAngeles does not? |
|
|
| “ |
The Foothill Transit drivers are so much nicer and more familiar with tap than @metrolosangeles |
|
|
| “ |
Also, @metrolosangeles TAP card is too hard for transit newbies to figure out. Just ask @djoz18. Loading online shouldn’t take 2 days. |
|

@metrolosangeles please fix the line 485 not correctly accepting loaded money on Tap cards, it error messages “zones” &confuses every driver |
|

Hey @metrolosangeles Want more riders? Don’t make people have to FIND a place to buy a TAP card… |

Another fail from @metrolosangeles; 4/6 ticket booths out of service at the NoHo station during rush hour. This is why people don’t ride. |

@metrolosangeles should really put sound barriers on the Green Line stations. The noise from waiting in the middle of a freeway is horrible! |

@metrolosangeles what’s the point of putting a Nextrip sign w/a QR code up so high that u need 2 be 7ft tall to use? http://t.co/say8h5J |

@metrolosangeles second time in 3 days trains have bees delayed 15 min or more during rush hour. #fail |

@metrolosangeles aren’t your buses suppose to stop at a bus stop. Even waving doesn’t help. Please work on your service, we pay for it. |

@metrolosangeles I’m on a blue line train that has taken an hour to get to my destination instead of 35 mins. Happy to never ride again. |

Must be National Passenger Annoyance Day @metrolosangeles. How many times we need to switch trains? |
|
|
| “ |
@metrolosangeles the line 212 is like never ontime fronm the Hawthorne station…the timetable said 4:16 the bus did not leave til 4:36pm 🙁 |

I really HATE the new Spanish language track on the @MetroLosAngeles Red/Purple lines. The voice has sloppy, Americanized Spanish. |

Test train at the La Cienega Expo Line Station makes me excited for the future of @metrolosangeles!!! http://t.co/RiwYv4K |

@metrolosangeles Short trips would be made so much easier if you offered 90 min passes and scannable passes. You have the infrastructure |
|

@metrolosangeles Way too cool. It’s fascinating looking at what your old nbrhood was like over 80 years ago. |
|
|

Operating @metrolosangeles train must be a great job! Your conducting a train! |

In other news, I still feel safer on rail than in a car on the freeways or streets. #metrolosangeles |

The Metro Rapid 720 is packed and crowded today. And they say nobody takes transit in Los Angeles. #metrolosangeles |

@metrolosangeles 5$ PER DAY is not “cheap” nor is it a discount |
