Trolley Southern route no more

The CRA's Southern trolley route had it's last riders on July 3, 2009. The victim of budget cuts and poor ridership. The CRA Board voted to do away with the route with 30 days notice to residents on the route. This will save $235,800. The northern route is being evaluated - it has a much higher ridership, but still is an expense. The city still has the Shopper Hopper and Palm Tran's the link and of course tri rail. The CRA and the City will be working on their 2009 - 2010 budgets over July and August. We hope they do not burden the taxpayer.
