The Ann Arbor Area Transportation Authority (TheRide) has shared its latest Citizen Report, which outlines the successes for Fiscal Year 2016 (October 1, 2015 – September 30, 2016), including ridership, performance, and financial information. The report also highlights the continued service improvements that TheRide has implemented since citizens of the cities of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti and Ypsilanti Township approved a millage to expand public transportation in May of 2014.
The ridership increase can be attributed to the Five Year Transit Improvement Plan, which began in August 2014. The plan was approved by voters in May 2014 and was developed with the help of community member participation and input.
