Bay Area transit systems can't afford to park the bus
Bay Area transit systems face funding challenges due to lower ridership post-pandemic, prompting a ballot measure to increase local sales-tax rates for their support. The 'Connect Bay Area' campaign is promoting the measure through events to highlight transit's importance, with a World Cup match serving as a test of the systems' capacity.
