http://rosecitytransit.org/radio/2022/12/Transit fare hikes are a dead-end
We are in the midst of multiple economic crises and many working people struggle to recover in an economy ravaged by a global pandemic.
Rent hikes and price gouging by greedy landlords and corporations are driving thousands into poverty, debt and homelessness.
You could scarcely pick a worse time to raise prices on an essential service like public transportation.
Yet that is exactly what TriMet aims to do, all while doing everything they can to avoid public scrutiny and accelerate the process with minimal outreach.
“The issues at TriMet stem largely from a lack of visionary leadership rather than a lack of resources. With a few exceptions, the Board of Directors is assembled of retirees, paper pushers and functionaries with dubious qualifications and problematic opinions.”

MAINSTREAM MEDIA ACTUALLY COVERS THE FX FAILURE
“Last night, the entire bus didn’t show,” said Sue Hanson, who gets on the bus at Southeast 157th Avenue and gets off in downtown. “It’s fine if it’s every 12 minutes, but if it doesn’t show up, what difference does it make? I don’t care if I get there faster, I just want to get there.”
TriMet dispatch logs obtained by The Oregonian/OregonLive show the FX2 line encountered more than 400 notable service disruptions in its first seven weeks of service. Between its Sept. 18 launch and Nov. 8, those disruptions added up to more than three days’ worth of service hours when things weren’t working as expected.
