Commuters want board replacing RTA to put safety first – Chicago Sun-Times

More than 1,400 riders surveyed in December and January listed “public safety” and “improving service” to be top priorities of the NITA board, which replaces the RTA June 1. Those results took priority over “expanding service” and “seamless and affordable fares.” The survey also found that satisfaction with “cleanliness” and “personal security” were rated the lowest of all other categories, rated an average of 5.6 and 5.7, respectively, on a 1-10 scale.

What rail commuters want is basic, reliable service. What the political animal appointees to the RTA/NITA board always tout is “expanding service” and expensive allegedly ‘green’ initiatives.

“Just run what ya’ got and run it on time.” is all they have to do. It’s easier for political animals to grift from outrageously expensive construction projects than from operations, so that’s what we get..
