Wow- this stat surprised me. Under questioning by Councilman @jd4clt, Interim CATS CEO said the current fare evasion rate for bus and light rail is 50%. Fare evasion is worse on the light rail than bus. He says the city is losing an average of 3-5 million in fares each year because of fare evasion. Put it simply- half of the people on public transit aren't paying.





Our Charlotte members are standing firm today. Thank you @jd4clt for standing with us! They are out showing what solidarity looks like in action. #NoKings

Interesting- Charlotte City Council has called a special meeting tomorrow afternoon to discuss the I-77 toll lane project.
