#BetterTransitNOW

Reliability â€” Frequency â€” Accountability

A Long Overdue Campaign for Baltimore Transit Riders

"MTA's unreliable service continues to demoralize current riders, discourage new ones and damage the Baltimore region."

MTA ON-TIME PERFORMANCE
January through March

From January through March 2024, 59% of scheduled bus stop visits were on-time; light rail was 65%, and the subway was 58%.

MTA riders need at least
90% on-time performance.

MTA SCHEDULED RUNS MADE
January through March

From January through March 2024, 84% of scheduled bus trips occurred; light rail was 82%, and the subway was 77%.

MTA riders need at least
90% of scheduled trips to run.

The Problem

Greater Baltimore residents who rely on transit are frequently left behind while prospective riders are discouraged from using a system they know is not reliable.

The Solution

Maryland needs to take major and quantifiable steps to improve reliability, frequency, and accountability for Baltimore transit riders.

Join the Campaign

We need your voice. Baltimore's future depends on riders and other stakeholders who care about the quality of our transit system and understand its importance to the Greater Baltimore region.

There is always money to fund what is valued, and it’s long past time to value public transportation & the Baltimore-area residents who use or would like to use it. The Baltimore region needs #BetterTransitNOW!
