Fare-Free Survey

A recent study came out in Worcester that recommended that the WRTA bus system consider changing to a fare free system for riders. This would mean that anyone can ride the bus for free (fixed routes and paratransit services) and the WRTA would get the money they normally collect from riders, which pays for 14% of their expenses, from another source.
