Did residents actually use the B-Line service? CATA reveals cost and numbers
BELLEFONTE, Pa. (WTAJ) – The Bellefonte/Benner B-Line will be out of service starting July 1, but how popular was it in the first place? The B-Line was introduced as a stripped back service to try to appease the financial needs of both Bellefonte and CATA. It seemed like council would not be renewing the contract months ago, but the official decision did not come until this week. 'There's been a lot of conversations and, unfortunately, we couldn't fit the need and what they're looking at financially,' CATA Chief Operating Officer Derek Sherman said. Sherman says the overall trip cost for the B-Line was about $42. Bellefonte's contribution took off about $9 to $10 per trip, with customers paying a $4 fare. This led CATA to eating about $30 of the cost per trip. For Bellefonte, that price is still too high despite the number of people actually using the service. 'Right now we operate on a monthly basis, anywhere from about 270, we've peaked at 350 for a month,' Sherman said. 'So we have people utilizing the service.' The borough's solution is to use the county's van service, which Dorothy Neff, a B-Line rider and member of Bellefonte's former Transportation Task Force, is not against. 'I think the idea with the county van service, I'm rather receptive to that,' Neff said. But, the plans for how that service will work and what it will cost are still unknown. For now, CATA plans to try and make the transition smooth and Sherman says they are always willing to try negotiating again. 'It is now for us to help our passengers transition over to the new service so they can have a very smooth transition from the B-Line over to what the county services are going to be running,' he said.
