New director of ShuttleBus sees ridership picking up | The Portland Press Herald / Maine Sunday Telegram

New director of ShuttleBus sees ridership picking up | The Portland Press Herald / Maine Sunday Telegram: "BIDDEFORD - As the average price of gas in Maine tops $3 per gallon, people look for ways to leave their cars at home and, naturally, ridership on local transit lines tends to increase.

Al Schutz has seen the trend before, and as the new executive director of ShuttleBus, he anticipates seeing it again.

'When gas hit $4 a gallon, my ridership spiked 22 percent in Gloversville, (N.Y.),' Schutz said."
