How about adding buses for special events such as fireworks?
I tried to catch the 6:57 bus from first at 128 & 24 and the got a ride down to the Park & Ride when it was late and I decided that I'd missed it. It ended up being 15 min late and completely full when it got there- didn't even stop.
Left 15 people standing there to wait an hour or do as I did and attempt a 2 1/2 hr transit marathon via 321(also late and very full) -skytrain-99 B-line to get into Kitsilano.
Quite the reward for CHOOSING the environmentally-conscious route and taking transit. I left a car in my driveway because I thought I should use my U-Pass!
Fortunately I've found a blog full of comments from people who share my pain - Improve the 351 (see links on the side) shares a variety of suggestions to deal with the issue. Pretty much it boils down to more buses, more often as the population of the Peninsula continues to grow frighteningly fast.
