The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5060, aims to amend section 7-273l of the general statutes to ensure that the Greater Bridgeport Transit receives funding that is proportional to its ridership and service area. This change is intended to provide a more equitable distribution of funds based on the actual usage and demand for transit services in the Greater Bridgeport area.
The bill does not specify any deletions from current law but focuses on the insertion of new language that mandates the proportional funding for the Greater Bridgeport Transit. The purpose of this legislation is to enhance the financial support for the transit system, thereby improving its services and accessibility for the community it serves.
