The Milwaukee Transit Riders Union is currently in the process of preparing a series of reports to show the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors (who control the bus system) the effects of cuts in transit service and how that service should instead be expanded. We want to show the County Board that every cut in public transit service directly harms a Milwaukee County resident and that real people do actually ride the bus.
We are trying to compile rider experiences with the Milwaukee County Transit System. We want to know how you use the system, why, and what effect cuts in service have had or would have on you. We’re trying to get experiences from at least 19 riders across the county (one per district).
Please send us your story and help us show the Milwaukee County Board that public transit is an important service and should be well funded!
