Monthly Performance Report

October 2021

Prepared by OTS Service Evaluation

· Ridership

Average weekday ridership for the month of October 2021 was 103,262, up by 27,724 or 37% from the previous year. Fiscal year-to-date ridership is at 11,436,963, up by 39% from the previous year.

While ridership continues to recover in 2021, it is still approximately 40 percent lower than pre-pandemic level. It is uncertain when ridership will fully recover and it will depend on loosening State and City restrictions, change in work environment (i.e. work from home), University students fully returning to in person instruction and tourism recovery (especially from international visitors).

· On-Time Performance

System-wide on-time performance is at 74.6% for the month of October 2021. Out of 106 total routes, 37 routes exceeded on-time performance at 80% and two (2) routes performed under 50%.

The DTS and OTS Service Review Committee reviews service levels, including on-time performance monthly.
