the morning commute about NUMBER_TOKEN. so maybe you earned the occasional beverage on the way home tammy's evening commute is straightforward she gets on the first available bus after five o'clock which is a line two that leaves at NUMBER_TOKEN and is scheduled to get her home at NUMBER_TOKEN NUMBER_TOKEN. the fair is NUMBER_TOKEN but let's just hang out here and talk about how traffic affects the bus it used to be quite a bit worse getting from the transit mall to the hawthorne bridge but a couple years ago the city put this protected bike and bus lane on southwest madison street and it really improved the travel time and reliability for buses that are going eastbound over the hawthorne bridge for line two which is going to be replaced by the new frequent express service late next year most of the traffic issues i believe are on division street at this point the big culprit in my experience is this five-way offset intersection where lad NUMBER_TOKENth and NUMBER_TOKENst come together at division the signal phasing is pretty challenging because of all the different conflicting movements so division doesn't get that much green time you can definitely be sitting in an eastbound bus here for a couple of cycles again it's kind of built into the schedule but just an idea and throw another close the ladd leg of this intersection for caleb's evening commute let's just say it takes him five minutes to get out of the garage queues at garage exits can be pretty bad at the pm peak so i'm probably cutting him some slack here google is sending him down to the ross island bridge and then down powell and it gives a pretty wide range of potential travel times NUMBER_TOKEN to NUMBER_TOKEN minutes so i'm gonna say the average is out to NUMBER_TOKEN even though i'm skeptical and gas is going to be NUMBER_TOKEN cents okay before we get to the final results quick reminder if you're enjoying the video drop a like and consider subscribing if you haven't already okay housekeeping done on to the year-end summary so let's go through caleb's totals first how much is he spending well i've got a dollar NUMBER_TOKEN for gas every day i'm gonna say NUMBER_TOKEN work days in a year so that's NUMBER_TOKEN dollars and really gas is the cheapest part of owning a car he was paying NUMBER_TOKEN a month for parking at his apartment and NUMBER_TOKEN downtown times NUMBER_TOKEN months that's NUMBER_TOKEN NUMBER_TOKEN a year for parking maintenance on a used civic i'm going to call it NUMBER_TOKEN a year auto and liability insurance about NUMBER_TOKEN and i'm not going to worry about whether he has like a monthly car payment that isn't the right way to do the accounting anyway the bottom line is he has a depreciating asset on his personal balance sheet and the average annual depreciation on a used civic is something like NUMBER_TOKEN so the total personal cost per year for the privilege of driving to work downtown comes out to NUMBER_TOKEN there's a lot there just let me know if you want to quibble with any of my assumptions for time spent i'm saying NUMBER_TOKEN minutes in the am because he has to leave at NUMBER_TOKEN NUMBER_TOKEN to be certain of arriving on time and NUMBER_TOKEN minutes on average in the pm where he just kind of gets home when he gets home and it's just gonna be different every day that's an hour NUMBER_TOKEN a day times NUMBER_TOKEN days about
START_INTERACTION_TOKEN okay before we get to the final results quick reminder if you're enjoying the video drop a like and consider subscribing if you haven't already okay housekeeping done on to the year-end summary so END_INTERACTION_TOKEN
