Even more insane, the starting fare is set at just $2, which is certainly generous. Wow, amazing, amazing. (Please see this notice for all matters.)
As you might expect, this transportation upgrade received near-universal praise. Loco Posted on our Facebook page. hell, Loco We reveal that bias and confess that we were excited about it too.
But during last night’s Eureka City Council meeting, our ears perked up when a local public transit enthusiast voiced his opinion during public comment. Joan McGarry said: She was the only passenger on RCX’s maiden voyage. So we started thinking like this: Who is this route for? Can you imagine a situation where we are the riders?

Yes, hell! This route and schedule solves a travel-specific problem for me. Become a regular rider!

The region has been in dire need of more affordable public transportation options for some time, but if you need to return soon or are forced to stay there until 2019, I don’t see a need to go to Mendocino County on a weekday. the next day. Perhaps with some tweaks it will become even more useful.

I would be even happier if I could use it on the weekends.

This route/schedule is not particularly necessary.

Looking at the HTA page, it appears that there are plans to extend this service to Crescent City, Santa Rosa, and Lake County in the future. That’s what dreams are made of.
