Lynx wants to hear your thoughts on cuts

With large-scale route changes and service cutbacks coming up, the Lynx bus agency will have a public workshop to hear comments from 5 to 7 p.m. Tuesday at Lynx's main station in downtown Orlando.

I used to manage the transportation program at a large university and what we did to raise funding is to sell advertisements on the buses. What if Lynx were to ask Disney for their help and then wrap the buses with Disney advertisements? You can raise the money that way.

I would think that in todays economic enviornment concerning transportation that Lynks has a opportunity to grow and prosper. It would appear that pubic transportation will continue to increase in demand. Lynks management must be able to create a business model that can take advantage of this new demand and become a viable entity.

Lynx is another minority managed government agency. Minorities were given the opportunity back in the 70's. After the riots the gov decided to fast track minorities into gov management positions. Now will they be able to do the job and fix the problem? Or will they keep dumping routes and play the blame game?
