TriMet Releases Latest Version of Proposed Cuts

TriMet's latest version of its proposed service cuts has only two bus lines cut, compared to the previous three (the #65 will not be discontinued). But alas, the proposed 5-cent fare increase for all riders remains.

According to the transit agency, about 50 bus lines are proposed to have some changes, including 10 lines with more significant reductions (27, 32, 45, 51, 58, 65, 73, 157; changes to lines 35, 73 and 154 will take effect in June). All MAX lines are proposed to have some changes.

More details on service cuts can be found here. TriMet will be accepting comments until April 23, and its board will vote on the proposal at its meeting on May 26.
