What matters is how the route is performing today, not what happened fice years ago during the first year of operation. The M15 ridership took a dive the year before SBS implementation for whatever reasons. All the increase the following year was immediately attributed to SBS. But when you compare M15 ridership in the years before SBS and what it is today, it is significantly lower. How does that show success?How do you conclude the M34 is a major success? As far as anyone riding the M60 seeing what a success it is, my friend rides it regularly and she is constantly complaining of overcrowded buses and difficulty getting around all the suitcases as well as it being slow. So that statement of yours isn't even correct. Until we get actual statistics about people's travel times being reduced due to SBS, no one can say it has been a success. As I have long stated, the true measure of success is that you are helping more than you are hurting, and that has not been shown. |
