Concerned citizens are saying bus cuts are having a negative effect on the city's most vulnerable populations--namely, seniors, disabled persons, and students.
Tevinn Richards is a Simonds High School student who lives on the West Side. He says it's literally impossible for him to get to school on time now that the bus routes have changed. He says if he were to to try and get there early, he'd have to add on an extra hour to his school day.
Richards says he's missing out on his entire homeroom period, when students can ask questions and develop a rapport with teachers--because he doesn't arrive until halfway through the next class.
