87 bus

If anyone else is tired of the 7:52am 87 bus going sailing past the last ~ 6-8 stops before Davis Sq., please call the MBTA to complain. We call often, but we're only 2 voices. Seriously, it's not always possible to walk to Davis with 2 kids and snow and when you need the 87 to get further than Davis, you need the 87! (617)222-3200 or 800-392-6100. Thanks.

Why do that instead of just walking down to Mass. Ave. (2 blocks) and taking the 77?

The 87 is miles more reliable than the 77.

77 runs much more frequently than the 87. But what I meant was, if you're going to walk to Davis and take the T to Alewife and get another bus to Arlington Center, you may as well just walk down to Mass. Ave. instead and take the 77.

Kids + snow + ice + cold ≠ 1/2 mile walk (when you have other alternatives)
