It all starts here.
I've had several discussions with many of the nation's top Transit CEO's and have been asked, "How would you address the upcoming fiscal cliffs"? My answer has always been that it all starts behind the wheel. As a former bus operator in Pittsburgh, I have seen how a good, polite, well trained, respected and valued operator makes a huge difference. Statistics say that most people who do not utilize public transit say that it is not safe to ride. How do you fix that and how does this help with funding? It all starts behind the wheel!
