In 2012, nearly 17.6 million people boarded a
TRAX train. About 21.2 million rode a UTA bus and about 1.9 million rode
FrontRunner, according to figures provided by UTA. (Those ridership
numbers don’t include the Draper and Airport TRAX lines and the Provo
FrontRunner line, all of which opened in 2013.)
That there were more crimes along bus lines
didn’t surprise Bill Tibbitts, associate director of Crossroads Urban
Center, which provides services to low-income Utahns.
"There are dozens of bus stops for every TRAX
stop," he said. "There are just so many more. The bus system still
covers a lot more territory than the TRAX system."
