Until a similar solution is found for the counties to the south we shouldn't just be focused on commuter rail.
But instead of trying to tie the hands of Utah County residence by not providing more express buses in hopes of forcing commuter rail, maybe UTA should provide the solution for today and start working with people instead of bullying them.
