    certainly not the best schedule in the world, but it is supposedly just the “starter” schedule.

    Also of note, the InterLink in effect allows RIPTA bus 8 customers to access the airport since there is a bus stop on Jefferson at the InterLink.

  • I used the interlink this week. The first day (wednesday) it smelled oddly of lobster. Today, though it just smelled like new carpet. I have to say, though, that the signage for the car rental return is stellar. I mean it is all kind of temporary but you’d have to be a complete idiot to not be able to get your car back to the garage. I was thoroughly impressed.

  • Went to the Interlink last Saturday and it was very quiet. It seems it takes a long time to get to the Service/Rental Car Building. Good exercise. Also not sure once there how to proceed to the train station/platform area. Not well marked. Hopefully it will be by next week when the train schedule kicks in. We will keep our fingers crossed.
