Metro returns route after riders complain
12:12 PM CST on Friday, February 2, 2007
Protests and complaints have paid off for some disgruntled metro riders in Southeast Houston.
Next week, the #68 Brays Bayou bus route will return to the Cuney Homes.
It was removed along with other routes in an effort to streamline service last month.
When that occurred 81-year-old Mary Thomas joined others in insisting the loss would force her to walk several city blocks.
Since then, Metro has held two meetings with Cuney Homes residents, and has decided to return the #68 to their community.
The other routes are still canceled.
