EARLIER THIS YEAR, MAYOR TIM KELLER CALLED THE ALBUQUERQUE RAPID TRANSIT PROJECT A LEMON. ON TUESDAY, THE MAYOR WILL HOLD A NEWS CONFERENCE AT THE DAYTONA TRANSIT BUS TERMINAL TO GIVE AN UPDATE ON A-R-T.
IN JANUARY, KELLER SAID IT WAS UNCLEAR WHEN THE SYSTEM WOULD BE UP AND RUNNING DUE TO PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRIC BUSES AND OTHER TECHNICAL ISSUES. AND JUST LAST MONTH, CITY OFFICIALS HINTED THAT, DUE TO MISSED DEADLINES, THEY MAY HAVE TO LOOK FOR OTHER OPTIONS REGARDING B-Y-D, THE BUS PROVIDER.
