Metro Light Rail Ridership Numbers – October 09’

November 10, 2009 by Nick Bastian Leave a Comment

METRO October light rail ridership – another record-breaking month:

PHOENIX — METRO ridership reaches an all-time high with 1,124,924 riders in October. 

With 70,000 more riders than the high in September, daily ridership peaked at 41,077 for the average weekday, 30,517 for the average Saturday and 17,160 for the average Sunday/holiday in October.

In September, METRO ridership totaled 1,054,286 boardings, resulting in an average weekday ridership of 40,772, average Saturday ridership of 28,612 and average Sunday and holiday ridership of 16,726.

METRO had its single highest ridership day on Friday, Oct. 2 with 50,562 riders.  Several factors could be contributors to this peak including the arrival of the fall season and visitors as well as events such as the First Friday art walk in downtown Phoenix.

METRO achieved 50,000+ riders one other time on May 13 during ASU’s spring commencement featuring President Barack Obama.  METRO served 50,011 riders that day.
