Andrea Yancey [Signature #7] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/6014407?utm_medium=rss I have been working at 865 Bassett Road for 6 years. I live in Lakewood. If the 49 & 808 are cut, I will be left with no transportation to work. I will lose my job since I can't afford any other mode of transportation. Please reconsider!!!

It is also jammed packed during rush hour. Also, RTA complains about not having money when they are engaging in multiple unneeded extra projects, as outlined on their website.

I am more than confident that the peple making the decisions in conjunction with the UNION can come to some mutual understanding regarding this. It is sad to see the city where I grew up just diminish before my eyes and no one seems to care.
What will people do who need to get to and from work on these routes? Who is addressing that? This is just bad all around.

Without it she has no chance of getting a job.

Other cites have thrived from increased riders due to the ever-increasing cost of fuel. Why is it that while the GCRTA has also seen this benefit, they now choose to abandon those same loyal riders by cutting transit services? How can RTA display such greed as to cut services and increase fares? What exactly is the additional fare paying for?

Reacting to this challenge by cutting routes while raising rates is so completely counterintuitive that one wonders what RTA could be thinking. Forcing people back into their cars at this time is sheer folly. Send the directors back to the drawing board!

Two of the routes you are eliminating (discontinuing) are the only routes I have to get to Westgate in order to connect with other buses. The only route to downtown is on the Cut Stops list and it runs twice an hour already.
Public transportation means just that -- you serve the public. At a time when bus ridership is up and alternate transportation and clean fuels are highly important, you say "Sorry. We're cutting service and raising rates.
