The public comments I'm logging re: PVTA's proposed service cuts are about as solid a vindication of Moldbug as anything
...ie, a person who rides the M40 twice a day is counted as a single affected rider. I don't agree w this way of counting but wasn't my call
-
-
most riders take the same bus both ways? So this shouldn't change the order much
-
right, the relative impact of each cut vis-a-vis the others would be unchanged if we counted trips
-
But, most people's impressions of ridership are based on trips, so the numbers look dishonestly low to most people (including me)
-
Not that it ultimately makes a difference, since *a cut is a cut is a cut* and nobody has yet stepped up to offer to pay our budget gap
-
my impression is the M40 is expensive to run as the reverse runs empty. Could its reverse trip could be local and replace a B43?
-
Yes, this is a mitigation strategy we're considering (and likely to go through with, if the M40 actually ends up being cut)
-
ha, that was most of the e-mail I was going to write. Was avoiding saying it a meeting as I didn't sound like I thought I was smarter

than those who run the PVTA
