TO THE EDITOR:
In her DTH letter, Bonnie Hauser said no money from the proposed transit tax on the ballot would be used to fund bus service. This is simply not true.
The tax will be used in years one through five for the following bus service: new Chapel Hill-Carrboro-Durham and Mebane-Hillsborough-Durham regional service, enhanced Chapel Hill-Durham local service, increased service to RTP, Saturday service in Hillsborough, expanded weekday evening and Saturday/Sunday Chapel Hill, Carrboro and campus local service, expanded regional Sunday service, expanded peak hour service from Chapel Hill to Hillsborough and RTP plus expanded rural transit.
Hauser is entitled to her opinion but not her facts.
