    I didn't think it was possible to make this place 'worse'. But leave it to Capital Metro to find a…read morenew way of torturing public transit riders of Austin yet again. They took out the soda and water machines. Granted few people actually carried enough money on them openly for a ride AND a drink because of safety reasons. And getting one in the dark probably would not be advisable. But for the few who were willing to risk it, I'm sure this was a nice touch. My advice would be to carry your own drink around. Perhaps more useful was the benches/beds under the somewhat functional roof. Now there is inexplicably just only one of the 'brand new' shelters. Everybody else is apparently expected to stand or sit/lay on the ground irrespective of temperature and/or weather conditions until your transit connection arrives. I did a double take, amazed that human beings are treated like this. Even for them, this is a shocking new low. Yes it's really cut down on the prior rampant vagrancy. But they've also cut down on riders. You now have to really want and need to use the public transit system in order to endure this treatment. It wasn't at all pleasant for one trip and I can't imagine it encouraging casual riders to permanently move to public transit. Whoever who authorized this needs to be fired.

    This transit center is a disaster, the worst in the city for sure. It is only easily accessible by…read morecar. Which is an obvious and complete failure because, you know, it is a BUS transfer center. Lets expand on this issue some more. 1.If you want to access the transit center from south of 183 say Anderson Lane as a pedestrian you have to contend with panhandlers, highway speed turning cars turning on red legally. (Having crossed several times there it feels like you are taking your life into your own hands, in a way that is hard to describe, but I recommend to anyone who may think this review is an exaggeration.) 2. Lets assume for a moment you live in the closest apartment complex,santa maria village, which touts the transit center as a feature, the transfer center isn't safely accessible no traffic controller, surrounding car oriented design. So for those keeping score... the only accessible side of this transit center is the West side of Lamar assuming you are already North of 183, unfortunately the nearest legal crosswalk is located at Lamar and Thurmond half a mile away from the station. So if you wanted to legally cross the street and lived at the nearest apartment complex, you would be walking a little over a mile, to get to the crosswalk and return to the transit center. (Not bad for someone in good shape and active, but not quick, not intuitive, and not possible for anyone with a mobility impairment, seniors, etc.) But, lets say for arguments sake and out of optimism that you do have a car, it would be reasonable to expect that you'd want it to be semi monitored. There are 0 cameras here as far as I can tell! It feels fairly sketchy, but that being said I have left my 14 year old car and it has been unscathed. Also, for arguments sake. Let's explore biking as an option, there is no secure place to lock up a bicycle if the racks on the bus are full. Additionally, the buses stack (long line of buses one behind the other), making it difficult to determine where the bus you nee is located. (pro tip- the routes are divided by lanes, but within a lane where a given route will be located will not be in the same spot in a given lane) No public restrooms. ***This is relatively central hub, that needs to exist with a coordinated facelift from Capital Metro, City of Austin, and TxDot. It is a shame that it was even allowed to be built without some of the infrastructure issues addressed in advance of the Transit Center and it is abysmal failure that the surrounding infrastructure is so bad 30 FREAKING YEARS later!!***

I assume with all of the scooter competition that they are not investing in keeping up the bikes. In San Antonio they are going electric which is great. We also had to call the help center when we tried to dock the bikes and could not. The only plus is that the bikes can be taken on the bike /hike path while the scooters are prohibited.

Both bikes were fine, but the best part was the customer service from B-Cycle, now called Metrobike. Their staffers were so friendly and helpful-they legit showed interest in me as a customer and desire for me to be happy! Yay! Something that's sorely lacking right now. Plus, they had THE CLOSEST docking station to ACL (by a lot), at the corner of Sterzing and Barton Springs Road. Far closer than the mandatory scooter parking (geofencing prohibits you getting any closer-you have to take them to Toomey). I made that mistake Day 1 ACL. I will for sure use these bikes again. Happy to have them around central Austin. *The payment options are clearly stated on the app and the website. Not sure what others are bellyaching about. Each amount on the app has a drop-down with a VERY clear description of what you're buying. Jeez.

    The only reason MSB has gotten two stars is because of the customer service representatives I spoke…read morewith were both sweet, understanding and just as frustrated with my situation. I now have 1012.69 cents in late charges because they "can not change the address on the billing statement unless the DMV notifies MSB of any changes." My car is not and has never been registered at the address they are billing me. I have no way of receiving the bills and have not for almost a year in a half. Second: Each late fee is over 100 dollars for 1.25 toll. Each marked saying billing issue. Third: I called, explaining my situation and paid someone 243.69 They now have no record, but my bank statement does. I avoid the toll as much as I can, but I live 290e and 130 and 183. All three different tolls owned by different companies, (I learned that today.) Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority or MSB is an evil scamming private corporation, taking advantage of Texans who can no longer afford to live in Austin, none the less drive its roads. If I can't get a bill how the hell am I supposed to pay it? You received my bills back, you knew I was not getting them. How do you have the right to charge me over 1000% per bill? Why did we let this happen Austin? It's our damn fault for not kicking them out in 2008.

    I am pretty what they are doing is illegal. I received my FIRST statement from them a month after…read morethe due date and they had added a $15.00 late fee. From what I am reading here, this is their normal business practice. I will be reporting them and will not drive this road anymore. I cannot believe they get away with this!

I provided short notice for a pick up request at the airport for 7 people flying in on diff flights, airlines, and times on the same day. To make it even more of a challenge it was the Holidays and they were flying in from heavy storm impacted areas. I was super stressed doing the work of 4 people; including the role of airport driver and running behind in finishing the final touches on my home for my guests arrival. When I reached the point of defeat, I found Ubiquitous Driver through YELP of-course...GOOOOOO YELP Community for another WIN based your reviews! Josh quickly got everything set up and I was able to focus on finishing my home and do it stress free! Because the experience was so smooth with the airport pick ups, I used Josh for the returns. I can't emphasize the care he and his team took with each family member. Josh is amazing and his company Ubiquitous is a life safer....Just thinking about how he took aaaaaallllll that stress away! If you need a professional driver who will take your schedule and circumstances and make it their top priority; reach out to Ubiquitous Driver!
