After several years of tight budgets, service cuts and fare hikes, the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority now has its healthiest budget in years. Ridership is up all over the country and Northeast Ohio is no exception. On the next Sound of Ideas, we'll talk leadership of RTA and Akron Metro about their budget plans and efforts to meet the increased demand and compliment new developments in the region. And are fare cuts possible? Join us Thursday at 9:00.
