I understand Metro's need to get information out about Rush+. It's going to confuse a lot of people.
But making these very slick, and no doubt expensive, five-panel brochures seems over the top for a transit agency that's perennially "broke."
Couldn't this information just have been put on a regular piece of paper?
Then there's the Rush+ marketing one reader called "asinine."
Metro's even ponied up the dough for yet another survey about Rush+ marketing and promotion.
And they're raising fares--again.
At least the fancy brochures are good as stylish and very expensive coasters:
