Pat, what I think several people have been trying to say is that there has to be a better solution for Commuter buses. They have a much different ride pattern than city buses and streetcars, which raises all sorts of design issues.

Perhaps they're allowed to drive in the transitway but not load/unload there, since they take much more time to do so than your standard city bus or streetcar.

Point being, all forms of transit have different operating characteristics, and just because commuter buses are 'transit' doesn't mean they're a good fit for this particular piece of infrastructure.
