IDK if this is still true, but when this was published PVTA and FRTA were artificially lengthening trips by not scheduling connections.pic.twitter.com/D1u6P0qeDa

They also neglect to mention that the free service only applies year-round to routes that are based on campus...

...anyone commuting from Hadley or Northampton during summer and winter vacations has to pay normal fare

normal fare is about $35/month so still not bad. I'd just bike most of the summer anyway and the low no-school frequency is annoying.

I've been making use of my bike now that it's finally road-ready again, but last summer I was a bit more cooped up...

Also, $35/mo must be for round trip weekday commuting only w/o transfers, no? A monthly pass is $45

I've never bought one; I bike too much for a monthly to be worth it

Makes sense. I usually buy them because my commute is to Springfield, which means 4 bus rides every day

60 minutes each way (and it takes me half an hour on foot to get to the bus stop in Northampton!)
