Additional factoid

Robert — 9/3/2005 2:20:29 AM (archived)

I did find a statistic for the number of people who used public transit to commute to work each day: 25,803, within the narrow timeslice of commute hours. Add in shoppers and other non-workers who ride the buses throughout the day, and it sure sounds like New Orleans had a big enough fleet of buses.
