U.S. POSTAGE RAVENNA MI RAVENNA Even after bus fares were raised in April 2008, ridership continued its PAID dramatic rise. Passengers took nearly 20% more rides that same month compared with April 2007. Since August 2007, seven of the twelve months have shown double-digit increases in urban fixed-route ridership compared to last year. Dear Friend, It is an exciting time at the Capital Area Transportation Authority. The excitement comes from serving more people in our community than ever before. Many people are boarding our buses who are using CATA for the first time. They use our services as a way to avoid high gas prices and to help stretch household budgets. People who have used our services for some types of rides over the years are now riding more often as a way to save money.
