Inside ze @Trimet WES Leaving Beaverton for Hall/Nimbus... in Black & White

"According to TriMet’s own performance and efficiency data, WES costs $16.11 per boarding passenger

to operate, compared with $3.18 for bus service and $2.51 for MAX Light Rail. Additionally, TriMet reports for May 2016 indicate an average of 8,775 weekly boardings on WES, a figure dwarfed by 1,176,200 weekly bus boardings and 755,600 weekly boardings on MAX." www.opalpdx.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/LIFE-Report-Fi...

 

Not a good outcome. At least the train back north from Hall/Nimbus to Beaverton was more full.
