PAT is our primary form of public transportation in the city of Petersburg and surrounding areas. If our bus routes are cut, hundreds of our neighbors will no longer have transportation to work and school. Let's do all we can to prevent this from happening.

The momentum behind this petition is proving that the city council cannot simply ignore us. These bureaucrats at PAT think they can strip our neighbors of their livelihoods without a fight but they are dead wrong.

This is gonna hurt so many people who rely on PAT to get to their jobs at the fort and the hospital. bad idea.
How are people supposed to get to work? Seriously some of us dont have cars and this is the only way to get around town. dont cut these routes.
