That sucks. I used to ride the bus here and there to help out with gas, but it appears there is no point in it, now. Whatever.
Did I read somewhere that Omnitrans is remodleing or relocating their bus depot due to the fumes? Could this price hike be due to to offset these expences? As many riders live close to their budgets this price increase will no doubt be felt mainly by those who can least afford it. I ask has Omnitrans explored all other options before impacting the riders in this fashion?
