Metro light rail ridership numbers – January 2011

February 23, 2011 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

While December 2011 boardings were shy of the 1 million mark, the January numbers rebounded quite well with a total of 1,074,803. Daily, weekend / holiday numbers were all up over the previous month. Positive numbers and growing ridership is almost getting boring, will we see a slowdown soon? Not likely. Gas prices continue to rise and that might get more people looking at public transportation as a way to save a few bucks.

Total ridership numbers look like this:

Total Boardings for January: 1,074,803 vs 959,340 in December:

Avg. Weekday Boardings: 39552 vs 34213 in December

Avg Saturday Boardings: 30647 vs 29,926 in December

Avg Sunday / Holiday Boardings: 20,270 vs 16,535 in December

According to METRO, January boardings for 2011 were 7.2% higher than January 2010.

It appears that ASU students and recreational riders continue to be a big part of the equation.
