  • SAVES GAS. Because I started commuting to work via Valley Metro Light Rail, I haven't put gas in my car in 8 weeks. SAVES MONEY. Instead, my work subsidizes my 31 Day Local METRO card, so I pay $22.50 each month to ride the clean, efficient, on-time train. Even the $1.25 full fare one-way or $2.50 full fare all-day passes are reasonable, and you can transfer to the bus system on the same are. SAVES TIME. Instead of fighting traffic, I can read a novel or the newspaper or Yelp on my iPhone! SAVES COMMUNITY. When I ride, I try to talk to at least one new person per trip. (If you're that bearded man who ignored me, I forgive you.) People complain of a sprawling, impersonal Phoenix that is allergic to local community. Well, then, I try to make Phoenix as local as possible by taking the train, frequenting local independents, and trying to be a part of the community solution. SAVES BIKES. I mean this quite literally. I ride my bike 1.5 miles to the rail station and when the train comes, I raise my bike up onto the hook (or sometimes just stand with it) in one of the four slots per car, and then I chill. The bike amenities make the Light Rail + Bus system a nearly full-feature mass transit system. THE NEGATIVE. Other yelpers have noted the limited night-time hours of operation (save the occasional extended hours for a Suns game). I agree that the City of Phoenix should step in and use the light rail as an opportunity to extend hours on weekends as an overture to stem the drunk-driving rampant in AZ. Also, and this is very minor, one morning the doors closed before I could enter with my bike. When I pressed the yellow button, nothing happened; when a sympathetic passenger inside the train pushed the inside button, nothing happened. I was on time for the train but the train would let me enter. Thanks, Voters of Arizona, for approving the transportation sales tax necessary to begin, sustain, and complete construction on this pulse-providing, community-building light rail system.
