SFTRU picks four campaigns

The Transit Riders Union will work on four campaigns to improve transit service.

1. Improve specific lines. We’ll work with riders, local residents and merchants, and the MTA to reduce travel times and increase frequencies on key lines, starting with the 14-Mission and the T-Third. We’ll develop materials and methods that should work on all the main lines, including yours!

2. Campaign for full service restoration (in terms of service hours).

3. Get more money for Muni. Executive Director Nat Ford says that Muni’s structural deficit is $100 million/year. We’ll work to reach consensus on how we should raise that money, then win the campaign for more funding!

4. Get a rapid network throughout city. Cities all over the world have figured out how to have a fast and frequent surface transit network. We can too! It’s a long-term campaign to have amazing service on every major line, but we expect no less.

Come to our organizing meeting to begin planning for these campaigns:
