LTD Board votes ‘No’ on Emx service on River Road. “Since MovingAhead got underway in 2015, construction costs for the EmX have escalated by over 30%, [and] …ridership estimates for EmX on River Road were lower by about 30%.” What the article FAILS to address is the large number of River Road area residents who were vehemently opposed to changes the EMX route would impose on that corridor and voiced those opinions in person and in writing to LTD. BTW, I don’t care how they play with the numbers. A 30% increase in construction costs plus a 30% reduced ridership along the River Road route equals a 60% increase in the reason not to waste our tax dollars (federal, state, and local) on such a boondoggle.
