Specifically, the bill mandates that the Council publish monthly reports on how many people are using each rail and bus route and compare these figures to the ridership numbers projected when funding was approved. Additionally, the Council must release quarterly reports detailing the types of crimes occurring on public transit vehicles and facilities, with the data broken down by mode of transit and crime category. Both types of reports are to be available on the Council's website for at least five years after they are first posted.
