"...including the lease-purchase of new buses..." :-)
Glad to see some signs of growth in a time when everyone's slashing.
Unfortunately it's just to maintain the service they have and not expand. They are just adding trips here and there and trying to rely less on the RTS's. Still glad I am no longer there!! I looked at their 'service changes' and had to laugh, or rather yawn when looking them over. Their planning staff is in a period of transition so I know they're trying to go slow.
Just remembering my time there and comparing it to the magnitude of what we do out here is so much night and day.
