You can not beat the light rail especially for a D-Backs game. If you are going to a baseball game it dumps you off right at the stadium. I also take it for the Symphony, First Fridays, and any event I have in Phx. No expensive parking garage fees needed. It is an experience. Free entertainment and people watching for sure. If you are seeing a concert at the old America West Arena, AKA, the stadium that changes it's name too frequently for Mary to remember what it is today, the Light Rail will be free with your paid ticket. ( or at least it is as of the writing of this review. So if you are reading this much after 2018 please double check on that because they used to do the baseball stadium and then they stopped) I am patiently awaiting the Light Rail to continue to Westgate and the Cardinal's Stadium. ( I do know the name of that one today it is State Farm arena-hahahaha) I work there part time and employees have a huge Rigaramo with parking and just getting to and from work. The Light Rail would be a blessing in and out of the stadium, increase work turnover rates, and of course be great for fans too. It now takes over an hour to get out of there.

We have lived in the Valley long before the Phoenix light rail was installed. Since then, we have…read moreused the service to attend concerts, ball games, the Tempe Arts Festival, and more, until we tried to use it on the 4th of July last year. It was a disaster!! The light rail no longer took us to the regular venues we have visited but dumped us off .8 miles from Chase Field. We were then supposed to cross an intersection twice and wait for another train. We waited in the heat until we just decided to walk to Chase Field. By the time we arrived, we were hot, thirsty, and miserable, and a train never passed by us, so one never came. Finding the train to return home was equally a huge pain! So we hadn't used the light rail again until yesterday to get to Chase Field on the 4th of July. We thought Valley Metro might have fixed this transportation catastrophe. They did not. In fact, it was worse! Valley Metro claims we could "enjoy the 8-minute walk" to Chase Field. Once again, no second train came, so we walked .8 miles in the blazing heat for 20 minutes (I checked my GPS to get an accurate distance and time)!! When trying to return home, we had to walk back to Central and had no idea which train would take us back. Valley Metro has ruined what originally was a good transportation option to downtown, but no longer. If anyone is elderly, has a disability, health issues, or trouble walking, avoid this mess! If you drive, take an Uber or a taxi, or even ride a horse, you will be happier if you need to go to an event downtown. Valley Metro should be ashamed of what they have done to what used to be good transportation.

Buses suddenly cutting out from a stop into the right lane while you are in it forcing you to swerve into the middle lane to avoid hitting them, drifting into neighboring lanes and other traffic while making right turns, breaking right-of-way laws at intersections and refusing to stop even when they're inches from another car, etc. And of course I've lost count of how many times a bus has GUNNED IT while I'm in the middle of a crosswalk as a pedestrian, like they're threatening to run me down if I don't get out of their way. I don't know that I've ever seen an Orbit driving normally. Tempe is already a difficult city to drive in, I'm not sure how I would feel riding in a vehicle that stomps on traffic laws as much as these ones do.

-----this review is being posted for Greyhound Bus Lines as an entire company------…read more IS GREYHOUND TARGETING THE POOR BY REQUIRING GIAGANTIC FEE INCREASES FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT BOOK THEMSELVES?? Let me start by saying that I will NEVER use Greyhound again. Never. I had the unfortunate experience of riding Greyhound just after graduating college. My experience was that the facilities and buses were dirty. The facility lacked adequate security. Now I find out that they are targeting the very people that keep them in business by charging those who most need their service HUGE service fees. My latest experience: It was horrible. My sister, who is staying with me while she completes testing and assessments in consideration for a liver transplant, needed to return to Yuma immediately to provide care for another family member. Because my sister does not have checking or lines of credit, she asked me if I could book her ride for her online. She wanted to make sure that she had a spot reserved. I went to Greyhound.com to arrange for a ticket and transportation for my sister. Greyhound quoted a price of $34.32 for a one way ticket. As I completed the forms online and proceeded to checkout, the cost of the ticket had changed to $52.32. As I researched the change further, I realized that Greyhound has a policy of charging an $18.00 fee if you buy the ticket but are not the person using the ticket. Greyhound listed the fee as a "Gift Ticket Fee." I contacted Greyhound customer service. Based upon my conversation and the lack of English spoken by the rep, I am assuming that Greyhound has outsourced its call center function overseas. The CSR I spoke with explained to me that the fee is a policy of Greyhound and it is charged to cover the additional costs and for convenience. I asked him to breakdown what additional costs they were incurring? He was unable or unwilling to justify the fee. He kept reiterating that "this is our policy and you must pay Gift Ticket Fee." My feeling here is the Greyhound has instituted a policy that is direct fee on the poor and indigent. This policy has the DIRECT EFFECT of raising rates on those who can least afford it. In my sisters case, the cost for me to book her bus fare was an INCREDIBLE 52% INCREASE over the advertised fare. Greyhound...it is no wonder your ridership is in continual decline. It is no wonder that your company is on shaky financial grounds. Wake up. Take a look at your reviews online. Read what people are saying about you.

No questions asked, you can hop on the trolley at one of the many stops around the downtown Scottsdale area and ride to your next stop. The route isn't very long. You can actually walk the entire downtown Scottsdale area. But you won't want to do that when it's raining. When we took this on a Tuesday afternoon, there was only one other person on the trolley, so not sure when it gets busy or packed. But we were glad to ride this trolley through town to avoid the rain. It's very cool that the city provides this service for the public.
