  1. No way are the buses up 5% at all. When we have to now catch 2 pr 3 buses where we where catching 1 that really adds to their count. You only have to notice the increase in traffic on the roads as now people have to drive to work and school to be able to get there on time. There’s not even maps at bus stops showing people what buses they need to catch to get where they are going. As for the elderly they sit at bus stops for hours waiting for buses that won’t show up as the bus numbers have changed.
