Jitney Bus Rides Could Return to Middletown
Middletown considers reintroducing jitney bus service next January for seniors over 65 and the handicapped with a proposed 2 cent fare reduction from 25 cents under Gov. Gilligan backed plan. Local data show 39 percent of riders are elderly, far higher than Cincinnati. Eligibility would rely on 18 plus seat buses and an ID plan, with funds from a $3.8 million federal revenue sharing request and a $99.3 million bill pending in the Ohio legislature.
