A Good Transit System

1.A Good Transit System has Frequent and Convenient Transportation for all.

2.A Good Transit System Helps Strengthen the Community.

3.A Good Transit System Helps Encourages People to Leave Vehicles at Home and Help out our Environment.

4.A Good Transit System Helps Individual's become More Physically Fit.

5.A Good Transit System Helps Reduce Traffic Grid Lock.

6A Good Transit System Helps Reduce the COST and NEED for PARATRANSIT.

7.A Good Transit System Helps Reduce Road Construction.

8.A Good Transit System has Free Public Transit.

9.A Good Transit System works on Barrier Free, Benches and Shelters.

10.A Good Transit System Treats their Employees with Respect.

Utah Transit Authority does not have a Good Transit System. They Cut Back Service to Save $500K, Keeps Bonuses Worth $600K. It is all about the Huge Bonuses not about a Good Transit System.

I would like to Thanks Governor Gary Herbert for cutting off the Eco Passes, it was a big Waste of Taxpayers Dollars. Utah Transit Authority has Destroyed the Bus System, UTA Encourage Motorists to Drive to Park and Ride Lots, to take Trax or FrontRunner. I know alot of State Workers Drive to Work Because what UTA did to the System.

It is All About $MONEY$ not Improving Pubic Transit

Utah Transit Authority Cuts Back Service $500K Keeps Bonuses Worth $600K. Cut back in Service and Cut too Employees, Helps Show Utah Transit Authority Board of Trustees that they are more Efficent, also all the Money they get for all the Transportation Project, Gets them the Huge Salaries and Bonuses. All John Inglish and the 9 more Executives care about is there Huge Salaries and Huge Bonuses not how they are Spending Our Tax Dollars and the People they are Hurting.


I am having hard time understanding there are three United Way Employees on the UTA Board of Trustees. United Way is a Non-Profit to Help People make there Lifes Better,
UTA is making it harder for People to get to where they need go, taking Buses Out of Neighborhoods Increases Proverty and Crime. Larry Ellertson Chair of Utah Transit Authority Board of Trustees, Robert Hunter and P.Bret Millburn Work for United Way.

UTA Executives and Board of Trustees Keep Up the GREED

Utah Transit Authority is Cutting Back Service $500K "KEEPS BONUSES $600K" John Inglish Salary $285,605 and receives Hude Bonus, there are 9 more High Pay Executives that receive Huge Salaries and Bonuses.


The John Inglish and the Executives are not the Back Bone of UTA, Buses, Trax and FrontRunner Drivers the onces I respect, the Bus Drivers that get Blame for the Cut Back, Deal with Rude Passenengers and Work Split Shifts having get up at 3:00 or 4:00AM to a Morning Shift take a Break then Come Back Do a PM Shift.


John Inglish, UTA Executives and the Board of Trustees do not need worry about Service Cuts they have their own Vehicles, has for the Late Night Service Cuts to Trax, that no big deal because there no Bus Service People can just Drive there Own Vehicles.


John Inglish, UTA Executives and the Board of Trustees Support Increasing Proverty and Crime because they Support Taking Buses Out of Neighborhoods to Build a EMPIRE.


I Hope the Utah Transit Authority and the Board of Trustees have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!

We Need a Good Transit System and Free Transit to Help become Car-Free

Utah Transit Authority needs be Accessible Vans and Small Buses to go into Neighborhoods to Help Encourage People to take the Bus and take Individuals to the Main Bus Routes and to Trax. UTA and Cities needs to be work on Barrier Free, Benches and Shelters. Expand the Bus System, Increase the Frequency of Buses and Free Fare and also Charge for Parking at Park Lots, to Help Increase Ridership on Buses.


This would Help Reduce COSTS and NEEDS for PARATRANSIT. This Would Help Reduce Traffic Grid Lock. This would be Transportation For All. Free Transit and Frequent Transit System Helps Encourage Individuals to take Public Transit to Help Out Our ENVIRONMENT.

What Jesus Christ Would Do

Would Jesus Christ have a Good Bus System in Down Salt Lake City, Avenues and at the University of Utah. Would Jesus Christ Destroy the Bus System in the rest of Salt Lake County.

Would Jesus Christ Support taking a Good Bus System, Out of Neighborhoods making it harder for Disabled, the Elderly and Workers that do not have Vehicle or can't Drive. Would Jesus Christ Support Increase Proverty and Crime do to Buses taking Buses.

Would Jesus Christ Support Executives Receiving Huge Salaries and Huge Bonuses, for all the Trax and FrontRunner, Inefficient Bus System.

With the Christmas Season Celebration Jesus Christ Birth. Jesus Would Support Transportation for All.

But behold, it is to get gain to be praised of men, yea, and that ye might get gold and silver. And ye have set your hearts upon the riches and the vain things of the world for the which ye do murder, and the plunder, and steal, and bear false witness against your neighbor and do all manner of iniquity. Helaman 7:21
