"You don't need to study whether or not people need to sit — especially people who are older, people have mobility issues, people with children, people who've walked a long the way, or who are carrying things...Nonetheless, many communities struggle to provide riders places to rest. In Los Angeles, roughly half of all stops are currently benchless, while in nearby San Francisco, nearly two-thirds are; other large agencies don't even make stop amenity data available."
