Scenes like this are repeated too often in our city where the municipal-owned utility spent millions squeezed from PUB ratepayers chasing an ephemeral gas-generated electric power plant and rewarded the mistaken administrators with salaries in the $300,000 range even after they admitted failure.
This particular bus stop (sign) is on a stretch of Old Port Isabel Road. This woman probably had to walk several blocks to wait for her ride. A bench made from recycled plastic would have cost a trivial sum to allow her to rest after the trek in the blazing sun. For some reason, Bus Metro and the the city administration and commission choose to splurge public funds on services for the few instead of making service to the common citizen a priority.)
