Split the difference?
It seems to me that besides OHSU employees, there will be two classes of users of the Tram: regular commuters (probably mostly from the neighborhoods at the top of the hill) and sightseers, both local and tourists from our of town.
I think it's very appropriate to have regular commuters enjoying a seemless transit system.
But I'm a little reluctant to have public dollars subsidizing sightseers.
So how about we honor TriMet passes, and the books of 10 TriMet tickets you can buy in advance, but we leave the single ride ticket at $4?
