Accessibility Problem

I am writing to report a systemic reliability issue with Bloomington Transit. The bus on Route 2 (West 11th St) is consistently running late. Because of these daily delays, I am unable to make my connecting transfer at the Downtown Transit Center.Missing this transfer causes a severe domino effect. It makes me significantly late for work, creates ongoing conflicts with my employer, and directly jeopardizes my current and future employment. When I called Bloomington Transit to report this, the representative inappropriately suggested I "take an earlier bus" or "take an Uber." Route 2 already runs on a limited schedule, and relying on expensive rideshare services is financially unsustainable. It completely defeats the purpose of public infrastructure. I am requesting that the Operations Manager or Route Scheduler investigate the Route 2 timeline. The schedule needs to be adjusted so that riders can reliably make their connections at the Transit Center without being stranded.Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Whether it is a lack of security, conflicting facility uses, gaps in weekend/night service, or inefficient route layouts, the city's response is always to shift the burden, safety risks, and financial costs onto the citizen. I need Bloomington Transit and city oversight to address these operational bottlenecks and provide a reliable, safe, and direct service that actually supports working-class residents.
