Cutting service?  As in:
-----------------------------
"Ridership is setting new records because we continue to add more service to
more places. The increases on MAX and on weekends shows that people are
riding for more than just getting to work - we have more trips on Tri-Met at
a time when fewer people are working due to the recession."

Service improvements bring ridership growth

Tri-Met attributed the ridership gains to recent service improvements,
including:

* Opening Airport MAX in September 2001
* Boosting the number of bus lines that offer 15-minute service, seven days
a week, from four to 14 during the past three years.
* The addition of new technologies that make transit use easier, like
Transit Tracker, which tells riders to the minute when the next bus or train
arrives, and the Online Trip Planner.
