$1.00 fare for adult riders...free for seniors, students and handicapped.

When I left Chicago the buses were about $1.50 but they came every 10 minutes, ran all night AND weekends. Any plans for more bus routes/weekend bus routes if they get more money?
The existing bus service "loses" a lot of money. Increasing the fares will simply reduce the amount it loses.
There is no way to compare public transit in a huge metropolis with the low ridership of a small population on a mostly rural island.
