UF proposes cutting $6.9M from RTS prepaid bus fare program

The University of Florida (UF) has announced plans to dramatically scale back a prepaid bus fare program that comprises half of the City of Gainesville’s Regional Transit System (RTS) budget. The program, introduced in 1998, provides annual funding to RTS in exchange for unlimited bus service for students, faculty and staff.
