The buses are corwded during peak periods and on the more popular routes, like the 64 or the 40. (Or Anything headed to Roma Termini!). After a while, we just adapted to the crowds and bus riding was our primary mode of transport when we were not on our motorino.
RinR,
I used your excellent site for my last trip and took many buses as I was based up on Monte Mario. (Before reading your site I had been too intimidated to take the bus - but thanks to you I feel like an old hand now).
I have a question which I don't see mentioned on your blog - is there any difference between the buses, trams and electric buses regarding travel time? Or more to the point, are they all vulnerable to getting stuck in gridlock or do the trams and/or electric buses have their own dedicated lanes? (For instance the '8' tram has its own lane, right?)
I realize how ignorant my questions sound - pls forgive me, I'm a public transportation-challenged Angeleno! Thanks again
RinR for posting here and for your excellent site.
