Many passengers have moved from using monthly passes to the 7-day pass because they may not have the larger funds needed for a monthly pass. Some of the "free" categories, such as UT on Fixed Route, Mobility Impaired, and MetroAccess on Fixed Route, have seen an increase in ridership this year offsetting some of the delines in above mentioned categories. Express routes ridership continues to see declines, down 8.5% for may and continues tracking below 2007 and 2008 levels. Revenue hours operated were 4.7% lower than last May.
