Marvetta Rutherford of Cleveland has been riding Greater Cleveland RTA for more than 50 years and said recent bus, and bus station violence has her demanding the transit system look at additional ways to improve safety.
Rutherford pointed out the fatal shooting of 21-year-old David Kittreles on the RTA Euclid Ave. HealthLine bus on March 21, and two separate violent attacks at the West Blvd. Cudell and Hopkins Airport rapid stations last week.
“These incidents at the rail stations are concerning," Stocking said. “We see a lot of riders, they feel unsafe at night, especially at the rapid stations. It’s dark, there’s not a lot of riders.” “We need that kind of visibility and safety is a must," Nix said. “More at the stops, as well as on the buses just walking through, because that will help a lot...When you come on the bus, we don’t have metal detectors so we don’t know what a person is carrying on there. And my members are worried, they want to go home to their families every day, and they’re trying to watch and learn and observe, but you don’t know what a person is still carrying out there.
