Bus Cuts Will Return Service To 08 Levels


Bus service in the city will be back to where it was in 2008 after the latest round of cuts take effect on Boxing Day. That warning from the President of local 1182 of the Amalgamated Transit Union, Tom McGraw who tells CHSJ News alot of people who depend on the bus to get about will be hurt.

He says it will impact the senior who has to get to the doctor or the person heading to a food bank because unless you live on a main bus line, the people who use the feeder lines will be hurt severely.

McGraw is holding out some hope Common Council may have a change of heart is there is enough opposition to the cuts on the part of Saint Johnners.
