Cutting bus service hurts those of us who can least afford it. Public transportation helps reduce the number of vehicles in use thereby reducing greenhouse emissions.

More bus service not less for Silver Spring

Critical service to all bus/ metro (no car) families like mine. J2 is a lifeline. Not a core service to cut - we need affordable transit, and good jobs, not cuts.

I take the J2 and many other busses quite often. Busses are critical for reducing carbon dioxide emissions and improving equitable access to employment opportunities.

This is NO time to cut mass transit. We need to increase it, instead.

To cut these bus lines would be ridiculous! Especially with customers who have no car. The customers who do have cars are in the same boat. Who wants to drive in the traffic all the way to DC?

If you cut bus service, how are people going to get to Purple Line stations to get to work? Or to Metro? Perhaps your bus schedules need some research to make them more efficient--like being on time, frequency, more efficient routing!

Please don't take away the 14 from Indian Springs, our household uses it all the time

I don’t ride the bus now because there isn’t an efficient route to work for me. I am looking at a new job in Bethesda, so would be affected by the j cuts. Buses are far more efficient than driver only cars at transporting people. We need more public transportation not less. I would like to see a beltway route added stopping at metro stations near the beltway.

Please do not eliminate metro bus routes or times. The J2 bus (late and early times) are sometimes the only public transit option going toward silver spring.

Many live on Colesville Rd in downtown Silver Spring and new to get to businesses and S.S. Metro. Why cut out Z bus? Please rethink this decision..

We can't build enough highways to fight induced demand.

These bus routes are sorely needed as solution to the congestion in the county.
