I mean aye, there's obviously a reason there's rising traffic levels. Despite the cost of living crisis and rising fuel costs.
Can't quite put my finger on why car usage is increasing though.
Lack of buses perhaps? A network that's not fit for purpose and doesn't take people where they need to be? Titivations not working?
But imagine making all those changes based on a 9000 survey response rate? An entire network decimated and tax payer bailouts propping other parts up - based on 13% of the population of Washington responding...
It was totally inadequate, not to mention the people it digitally excluded. For changes as significant as what was proposed, there should have been proper roadshows around the network, allowing people to ask questions and discuss the changes, not just enter comments against some vague proposals online.
It's easy to brag about 9000 survey response rate, when you don't state what it is a comparator of. What is that as a percentage vs unique users? It shouldn't be difficult to establish unique customers, even just from contactless/QR scans.
