This review is more for the Metro Lift service and the main building. If you did not know but…read moreHouston Metro has a service call Metro Lift, it is for people who can not drive or walk to the closet bus spot safely. And this service is like ride share app, where they will pick you at the door and drop you off at the door. If you have a wheeler or in wheeler, no problems, you will get you in the vehicle safely and secure you safely. You have to qualify for the service and you have to go through an interview at the main building in downtown. I really appreciation the Metro Lift as it let me be independent on going to places in Houston safely and not relying on family or friends all the time. The downtown main building is also the Downtown Transit Center. You can also buy your Metro Lift paper ticket here and get a new ID here.

Livin' in the big city like I do, I'm used to public transport. I don't even own a car so I try to…read moreuse a bus or a train wherever I go. Imagine my delight when I found a bus route that goes all around downtown Houston (conveniently taking me from my hotel to the barber shop) and best of all....it's free! The Greenlink is a downtown circulator that takes you all around the central business district. I took it from Houston Center up to Lousiana and Jefferson. Then I took it back after my haircut. The bus was clean, there was almost nobody on it and it was fast. Houston, I recommend you start using this before the funding dries up and it goes away. If you work downtown, use it to go to lunch somewhere different. The buses come very quickly (every 6-7 minutes) and it's free!

FREE is always good…read more It was my first time in Downtown Houston, TX and I didn't know that there is a free bus. Since I sold my car, I get used to commute public transportation. With greenlink bus, I was able to see the city and it was very great experience. Every 15-20 minutes it runs and I really like it I was going to a barber shop and took one of this Greenlink bus. and it was very easy to commute around downtown houston.

Uber does okay with Houston! It's working out between the new technology of ride hailing apps and…read morethe old Taxi system. Uber generally gets me to where I wanna go in Houston for relatively cheap, considering the sheer size of this city. There always seem to be people available nearby and have never had to wait more than 15 minutes for a ride or so. Prices are going up. It seems like the drivers are getting pinched more and more. The drivers are often interesting people. You don't really know who you're going to get- it's fun chatting them up, but some just wanna be left alone. I wish there was a setting in the app to let you or the driver know if the other person would rather be left alone. This city is big, that you have to watch it- going from, say, NRG stadium, to the Woodlands could be an expensive endeavor.

If you live 270 you've had a good length life and longer than average in most of the world. 290 might be a little bit on the long side, but personally I'm fine with that. Maybe we can even try and look 50 at 90. Now there's a challenge. Easily one of the worst highways imaginable in the history of the world, this is 290. I really don't like driving on 290 from the 610 all the way up to the distant suburbs. Once you get past Cypress, it becomes absolutely fine because at that point you're talking about going out into the countryside, and it's the Houston segment which has been under construction for what seems like the last 50 years that is a big problem, and I avoid it whenever I can. It's not as dangerous as 59 in terms of crash volume, but it's every bit as annoying and backed up, much like 45 north out of H-town.

Getting around Houston can be tough. Traffic, wild drivers, bumper-to-bumper traffic going 75 mph…read more Houston often has short entrance ramps, so you gotta floor it as soon as you get on the road. But this roadway is wide, big lanes, and when I went over a weekend, there was little to no traffic! It was nice! My main complaint was that when I went, many of the entrance ramps were closed for some reason, making the commute even longer. My favorite thing about this roadway is that they have giant pictures of Texas, with bluebonnets in front of it along the bridges and overpasses! It looks nice! They could always raise the speed limit along here, since nobody seems to follow it.

The buses are torn up, passengers are rude and there is always a fowl stench emitting from someone. I've been passed by drivers waiting at a stop, harassed by drunks and even had to change busses once because somebody puked all over the place. The sound inside this is noise pollution. There is a loud blaring speaker belting out a constant loop of "82 Westheimer, Please have your Q card as you enter the bus. Thank you for riding Metro" Then it goes in Spanish and repeats again. I know I'm on the fucking 82, you don't have to repeat it 30 million times. Between that, the rattling, windows and the loud mouth thugs sitting in back, the noise is unbearable. The schedules are always fucked up and sometimes you'll wait 30 minutes for a supposed 10 min interval bus followed by 3 or 4 busses minutes apart. For the most part this bus gets you were you need to go but if time allows take the 25 instead.

There's multiple departures everyday and it's easy to book a ticket through their website. Upgrades are available to select your seat or pay to have the whole row to yourself. Honestly I wouldn't waste your money on this. Both of my trips were only about half full so it was easy to spread out. Departures were both on time but both arrived a little past the expected arrival time so take that into consideration when trying to plan your day. The bus is clean, has charging outlets at very seat and there's a restroom on board. They are also able to accommodate wheelchairs as there is a lift at the back of the bus. My one complaint is the ride from Houston to Austin had a significant amount of vibrating for the entire ride. Think - that feeling when you first get a flat tire. It was pretty hard to try to nap. Otherwise, no complaints. I would do this again.
