 <http://peoplestransit.org/?p=22> Frustrated with your transit experience?


Tired of slow, unreliable public transportation? Feel like nobody at Metro /
Sound Transit cares about your rider experience?

You're not alone.

The Transit Riders Union is helping to unite riders and give them a voice
that will be listened to.

We are fighting to improve our transit system, specifically:

Passenger amenities (shelters, maps, schedules, cleanliness, etc.)
Service reliability and efficiency	
Keeping fares low and fighting unfair service cuts	 Transit information
and communication	
Safety and security at stops and aboard buses	 Transit equity (ensure all
riders in all areas are well-served)	
Transit agency transparency

 <http://peoplestransit.org/?p=15> We're just getting started...


Welcome to the new Transit Riders Union web site! We're still working to
migrate our old web content to our new web host, so please pardon our dust
as we finish moving.

In recent Riders Union activity:

*	Candidates responded to Transit Riders Union concerns. The leaders
of the Transit Riders Union invited executive and legislative candidates for
office in King County and Seattle to respond to the concerns of transit
riders, and  <http://peoplestransit.org/?page_id=9> we have posted their
responses. 


	

*	King County has released its Performance Audit of Transit. If you
find something interesting that you'd like to share and discuss, or if you
want to learn about others' findings,
<http://groups.google.com/group/trumps-discuss/subscribe> join our "soapbox"
group. 


	

*	Be in-the-know: The Transit Riders Union is finally in action! To
keep up on the latest,
<http://groups.google.com/group/stru-announce/subscribe> sign up for
announcements. 


	

*	And, as always, you can contact us at
<mailto:info at transitriders.org> info at transitriders.org. 

Happy and Safe Riding!
