Wonder how free buses will fare in New York? Watch these Md. counties.
I read the June 29 Metro article 'Buses now free in Md. county,' about Montgomery County's free bus program, with interest. In neighboring Prince George's County, we eliminated fares on TheBus, our county's transit service, on June 30. While scrutinizing the county's budget in the spring, the county council found that the amount of money it cost to collect the fares was greater than the amount being taken in. Not only is eliminating bus fares a better deal for riders and a stronger encouragement to choose transit, but it also will save the county $4 million over the next several years.
