I'm doing great, so I don't—I think we should skip it one hour.
00:04
All right, all New London buses, here's my plan.
00:10
We're pulling over some buses to hold for one hour.
00:15
I don't think Water Street's going to be a safe location for us to sit, so what's the Governor Winthrop area look like?
00:24
Do you think we could stage up there for an hour?
00:29
Run one to base.
00:32
Go ahead.

You have all those people from bus 108 down here on Fredrick Street at the 8 o'clock trip.

I'm here at Water Street.
00:43
It's not that bad.

They didn't plow the sidewalk yet.

Yeah, there's a no-go over here in the Governor area.
00:53
Okay, well, hit the spot.
00:55
We got three buses somewhere for an hour.
00:59
I mean, the safest spot would have to be on Water Street.
01:03
Just the passenger is going to have to just, you know,

walk in the snow if they want to get to the bus because the side of the road is plowed to the right, just not the sidewalk.

But (name withheld), they're not walking in the snow.
01:19
They're walking in the road, which makes it dangerous.

Yeah, but if the buses are not moving, then if they choose to walk on the road, that's on them.
01:28
We got to worry about safety for us, at Deer Park.
