WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBIER 31, 1979, PAGE 23 Thanks l Bob ad let's giive buses a tr'y Dear Sir: In ail fairness to our, Whitby citizens, young & old; ail this talk of a bus service ls getting to be a bore. First, councîl votes for and then against. Why not gîIve a bus service- 6 or 9 mos. triai. A iength of timne to really prove, whether residents Mill use It or not. At which trme council can assess Its.worth. Make operating costs public. Exactiy what it took was revenue from the fare box, and the operating. costs to mfaintain thîs service. A temporary triai basis such as.this wili brlng to ight the- needs of Whitby residents. A truer evaluation on the important, needs of a bus service. Myseif. being with the T.T.C., (Toronto Transit Commission) for many years, i have purchased a home In Whitby, & I have. tran- sferred to GO Transit ,out of Oshawa & having done this with my'16 yrs. experience ln tran- sportation (as a driver) i feel that I know a lîttie about bus services, and seen many chanices ln Tioro - ï. 1l'il 1,bring up a couple of instances on, new routes0' bus ser- vices. The T.T.C. put on a triai basîs a bus service on Doniands & Jones, from O'Connor South ta Danforth and south Dear Sir: Congratulations ta both counclilor bob At- tersley and your newspaper for taklng a firm postion on the "bus Issue". - After golng through varlous stages of anger and frustration won- doring what an In- dividual citizen couid do to get through to the dead beats who are supposedly runnIng the town of Whltby, it was with dellght I plcked Up the October lOth edition of your paper, and found there were indeed other con- cerned citizens. Now it Is Up to -the people ta get behind this positive move (in- ciuding merchants, Chamber of Commer- ce, Church leaders - where have they ail been or have, gone in the past weeks?) Corne on Whitby, fMI out the survey, we deserve a lot better than we have been get- ting. Elizabeth Evans. Whitby Tom Tralchef f 60 Calder Cr. WAhi4kh, J.C.

This was done onîy after many petitions, and demon- strations at their head, off ice by the representing group ln this area. (The T.T.C. got a pleasant. surprise the number of peopie that used 'this bus). They alIso had an ex- press bus from 401 & McCowan (Town Cen- tre) to University & Richmond VIA Don Valley Pkwy. This didn't qulte pan out to what was anticipated. 1 could go on & on with exampies such as these. In ciosing, 1 say give a bus service a fair triai to prove itseif. We'Il lose nothing but time &-.a littie money, but If it works out, look at ail the advantages to ail this area taken in by such a bus service.
