Trimet misleading propaganda

Ridership on TriMet’s Frequent Service bus lines soars  

Frequent Service bus ridership

  • Weekly trips were up 10.4 percent at 688,200
  • Weekday trips were up 10.2 percent to 112,700
  • Weekend trips were up 11.6 percent to 124,700
Why do I not see what they are seeing? I am looking at the right report aren't I?

I'm looking at the March 2014 report! What are they looking at?

    They are comparing April of this year to April of last year as they usually do to ignore seasonal fluctuations

    I can't find the April statistics on Trimet.org. I'm using march.

    Well, the news release mentions April; it's possible the full stats haven't been posted publicly yet
