They’re running an articulated bus 🚍 on the Route 18 at 7:30 pm. That does not seem like a very prudent use of the public authority’s funds as this is never a terribly packed bus. Albany really isn’t that great of a city for articulated buses, just isn’t the population. Maybe they make marginal sense on the Busplus 905 express route or maybe the 22, 10, or 12 at rush hour but the 18 at night seems like a complete waste. The articulated buses are fuel ⛽ hungry, they require a lot more maintenance, and usually are driven by the highest paid most experienced drivers. Albany survived for twenty years between 1996-2016 after the 1984 Ikarus Crown 👑 articulated bus debacle, you got to wonder why they are using them so heavily on marginal runs.
