“In short, it took at least a 170 percent increase in spending to produce a 136 percent increase in transit service which resulted in just a 24 percent increase in transit ridership and an 18 percent decline in per capita ridership. Since APTA’s goal is to increase transit spending, it should be proud of that record. Taxpayers and transit riders, however, won’t be so happy.“
Is this the best use of our hard earned tax dollars? Spending more for fewer? Just like another Government entity – Education – whose cost has far outstripped the people (students) it serves.
