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

Take the bus 720 to the downtown, waiting at the Wilshire blvd. Got on the bus at PM 12:16

the line 920 makes less stop, but from my experience, I never saw a 920 bus on the route. The metro Connections information is helpful for people who need to transfer.

The left white part on the screen is the route map, it's really helpful for people to know how far they are from there destiny. The right part on the screen is the advertisement, it's a good way to make some profit because people on the bus usually boring and they might pay attention on these advertisement.

Not may people on the bus in the weekday, it might be a problem if there will be a extend purple line to Westwood. The total number of rider may not support the train system at the off peak time.

Get off the bus 720 at Vermont/Wilshire, transfer to the metro purple line. PM 12:55, got off the bus. The total bus drive time on 720 was 40 mins.

The station is easy to find.

The monitor tell people when will the next train come.

Actually it look old and seems not totally completed (although it is completed) and the light inside the station is dark. Seems not safe enough for female alone at night.

The light in the train is also not enough. It's dark

Got off the train at PM1:12 at 7th Street.

walk 7-10 mins to the central library
