  1. While some of this information is nice, most is basically useless and NONE of it is relevant to someone riding the buses that travel along Broad St. As GRTC permanently closes stops and (seemingly randomly) temporarily closes stops there is no information to help riders determine impacts to their travels. It is barely enough information for drivers!
