Approximately 70% of Metro bus riders do not pay their fare. Metro General Manager and CEO Randy Clarke joins to the show to weigh in on why so many people are not paying and how the agency is adapting.
Metro is also considering dramatically changing its funding model. We ask Clarke what it might mean and how it could lead a more financially healthy transportation system.
By the end of the year, Metro will begin a return to self-driving trains 15 years after a fatal Red Line crash. Clarke explains why they are making this move now and what it might mean for your morning commute.
Plus, Clarke talks crime, the Circulator, ridership, and a potentially looming financial crisis.
