Independence

“The bus provides me transportation to work and my shopping. I go everywhere on the bus. Work, doctor appointments, grocery shopping. If I need to go somewhere, it's by bus.”

– Helene M.

Education

“The first two years of my college career, public transportation was my only way to get to school and work. Without the bus I couldn't get to the places that I need to be to help my future and my family.”

– LaBria R.

Jobs

“I commute to Manhattan daily, sometimes that includes weekends. It is more cost and energy efficient to take the bus to Metro North as opposed to driving into the city adding more air and traffic pollution.”

–Y.M.B.
