METRO boardings down again for July; METRO rips out seating on tram

TOM BAZAN passes along the latest (July 2010) boarding/revenue information for METRO, and the results aren't pretty. Boardings are down significantly, again, for the Main Street tram and for the bus system.

Always good at putting lipstick on a pig, METRO's PR department announces on the agency's expensive blog that the organization has removed two benches per light-rail tram to accommodate more bikes!

Unfortunately, with the declining ridership, METRO probably could have removed a few more benches and nobody would really have noticed.
