I will be designing a bus shelter that will solve the issue of not having enough protection from the weather. Chicago has unpredictable weather, when the regular bus shelter gets crowded some people end up standing outside of the shelter. I am going to add a longer roof and increase the lenght of the shelter to the sides. This will create more space for the people so they dont have to stand under the unpredictable Chicago weather.
