Ohio funds public transit at one of the lowest levels in the nation - spending just $7.3 million in total or about $0.63 per Ohio resident. This severe under-funding of transit has led to a crisis in Cleveland: RTA, the most robust transit authority in the state is proposing raising fares by 10 percent for a one way pass and by 50 percent for paratransit. RTA is also proposing cutting 1.3 percent of bus service.
