Zen in the Art of Travel Behavior:
Using Visual Ethnography to Understand the Transit Experience

Starting off at westwood and weyburn.

On the way to santa monica blvd.

Still on the way to wilshire. Stopping and going!

the beginning of the journey- Westwood/weyburn.

Since I do not own a vehicle in LA, I generally never think about the price of gas.

I wanted to stop at a shop on my way down to 3rd street promenade so I exited the bus at santa monica and bundy. Instead of transferring to the 14, I decided to walk up to wilshire.

walking up to wilshire, I saw this road work. I dont know how significant this is for the project itself, but it was nonetheless part of my trip.

I took the #2 bus at wilshire and ? - on the way to 3rd street promenade

Little symbols/signifiers of place

the bus can accommodate handicap riders. In relation to an underground subway or métro, the bus seems to be much more handicap accessible.

I thought that these bus waiting stations were awesome. I think these are a great idea and would definitely attract more bus ridership.
