The Port Athority is proposing to increase fares and cut service.
Proposed changes are enumerated in this announcement which includes fare increases to most of their routes, elimination of many routes, and service after 9.00pm. This would cut their current number of service hours by almost 20%.
Since I bike most places, I wont feel the impact, but I would imagine this could have a serious effects on those who depend on the buses as their primary form of transportation. PAT is having an open forum on Wednesday, May 21 for people to express their opinions. They are also accepting comments in written form. I would strongly urge those who will feel the effects of this to attend these meetings and send letters.| TITLE | AUTHOR | DATE |
