This is wonderful. I would hope it would expand to Spanish River Blvd and FAU, and Publix at US1. There a lots of students who would benefit greatly. And lots of parents who would rather pay for bus fare than a car purchase for their children. Safer too. Not to mention disabled persons. Even though there is already transportation that serves disabled persons by appt.
