NashTransit

If you missed the Tennessean today, here are links to two guest columns, the Tennessean's editorial, and letters:

• Decisions at MTA have been difficult - Gail Carr Williams, MTA Board Chair
• Cuts in MTA routes send wrong message - Jerry L. Maynard II, Metro councilman at large
• Many of MTA's daily riders have no option but the bus
• Reader Views

From the Tennessean's editorial:

It should be extremely frustrating for Nashville, where mass transit has been tapping its fingers on the table waiting for commuters to wake up and smell the advantages of bus service, to see costs work against riders at the same time riders are showing more interest in mass transit. The demand and the availability of service are suddenly going in opposite directions. Nashville knows mass transit must be part of the city's future. The city must know that steps that hurt riders can't possibly be part of the answer.
