“WHERE IS MY BUS? @govdanmckee.bsky.social underfunded RIPTA. Nearly 70% of routes are now running at reduced frequency or hours of service. These are the largest cuts in RIPTA’s history, and they hurt working people.” “I walk home for an hr. b/c of bus cuts!!” 🚨‼️🚌

Dip in Ridership, Complaints After RIPTA Service Cuts Take Effect - ecoRI News

This is one of the reasons why ridership is declining!! Unreliable transit service!! This is for your administration to own, @govdanmckee.bsky.social.
