Thank god I didnt have to depend on going to work, or a doctors appointment, or all the other things people depend on the City bus service to meet their daily traveling needs.
One young lady told me she has to ride her "home bus", 2 hours before her job starts to get to her work.
Many are asked if they ride the bus service and its so ridden with delays and break downs that employers dont hire them on that basis.
OKC can do better.
Hopefully Devon and Chesapeake would purchase a CNG fleet for the bus service as a vote of confidence in CNG as a transportation fuel.
