Busloads
I have been pleasantly surprised to observe that Lincolnites haven’t been bailing out on Star Tran, despite declining gasoline prices. I thought for sure that once gas prices started dropping, so would bus ridership. It has happened before. Instead, ridership—at least on routes 3 and 16—has been fairly constant. What’s different this time? I don’t really have any theories, except that perhaps people discovered that riding the bus isn’t nearly as scary as they had been led to believe. And for folks headed to and from Downtown, it really can be quite convenient and inexpensive.
