Here's another fairly easy puzzle involving bus schedules.

While walking east along a major bus route, I am passed by an eastbound
bus every 24 minutes, and by a westbound bus every 8 minutes.

1. How often do the buses run?  (It isn't rush hour, so the buses run
with the same frequency in both directions.)

2. Are they local or express buses?
