L.A.’s Bus Stops Need Shade. Instead, They Got La Sombrita.
Seeking an inexpensive way to provide relief from the sun to waiting commuters, the city has installed structures called Sombritas at a handful of stops. Their design has raised eyebrows.

#busshelters our suburban community is interested in having some bus shelters. Just wondering whether there are other people who have helpful experience to guide our 'journey ' Thanks.

I spotted #transportcanberra installing a water tank shaped bus shelter at the bus stop two down from mine on my way home this evening, and I felt so relieved I almost wanted to cry! For a while, it looked like they were going to remove them all, which would have been a crying shame, because those #busshelters are the best! They keep the weather off, and their seats are plastic, so they don't get freezing cold in winter.
