Q: How much of the transit tax is actually improving the bus system? I’m afraid the money is all going to be spent on rail.
A: 71% of the transit tax revenue is allocated to the bus system, with 14% for rail and 15% for other transit improvements. No rail system can efficiently operate without working in tandem with a solid bus system — just like an urban freeway system doesn’t work without local streets. The bus system does now and will continue to benefit greatly from the transit tax.
