COMMUNITY CONTENTTriMet will modify its schedule for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, Monday, January 18, to match ridership demand. TriMet carries more riders on the MLK holiday than any other holiday, so the agency is providing more service than a typical holiday/Sunday schedule. Based on last year's figures, ridership is anticipated to be a normal weekday.

To close budget gap, 18 lines have minor adjustments to service frequency
To help offset a budget shortfall, service on 18 bus lines will have two-to-four-minute reductions in frequency during off-peak hours. These changes take effect Sunday, November 29. The service cuts close a $3.5 million gap of $31 million in cuts in the current FY10 budget caused by the ongoing recession. The agency already has implemented hiring and salary freezes and executive furloughs, cut 9 percent across the board and implemented service cuts to offset the gap.
To close the shortfall with the least impact to riders, small reductions in service frequency will be made on the following lines:
4-Division/Fessenden
6-Martin Luther King Jr Blvd
8-Jackson Park/NE 15th
9-Powell/Broadway
12-Barbur/Sandy Blvd
14-Hawthorne
15-Belmont/NW 23rd
17-Holgate/NW 21st
19-Woodstock/Glisan
20-Burnside/Stark
