Since the 90,92 and 96 went through changes some years ago when they switched terminals service has gone from good to bad to worst to terrible and then why bother taking this bus.

When the 90/92 started at Mclean Gardens with the 96 at Ellington Bridge you had great service. Then after the switch to 90/92 Ellington Bridge and 96 to Mclean Gardens you had ok service. Then the change in September has made everything just terrible and the construction has made it worst many times over.

Since September the service on the 90, 92 has gotten worst. Adding to it the changes in the L2 it takes twice as much time to get from Ellington Bridge to 13th & U street.

Over the past months when the L2 went straight down 18th Street you could get off at 18th & U walk over to a 90/92/96/X3 stop and beat the bus there and catch the bus there and you would not be getting on the buses you would see at Ellington Bridge or on Columbia RD you would 1 or 2 buses ahead.

The 90, 92 (when it does run past 14th street), 96, X3, L2 all take forever due to the reroute Columbia RD, California Street, Connecticut Ave, T Street, Florida Ave then to U Street.

Is there any reason they could not have had either the 90, 92, 96 or X3 take Columbia RD, 16th Street to U Street instead of the Columbia RD, California Street, Connecticut Ave, T Street, Florida Ave to U Street 15-20 minute detour.

The biggest problems on the 90/92 line is the Adarms Morgan/Dupont Circle Detour and the North Capitol/New York Ave/O Street/Florida Ave routing
