How much should we pay for Teton Village transit?

Frequent bus service to and from Teton Village has been what many see as a win-win. Employees get to work. Skiers don’t fight for parking. The moose migration hot spot of Highway 390 is still two lanes. That’s even as shopper, residential and skier trips to the region’s winter economic driver has grown over 30 years. But in times of tight budgets, who pays for this service has made headlines. The cost-sharing agreement between START and the Teton Village Association is up for negotiation. And former START Board Chair Jared Smith, a career transportation planner, thinks the transit department should fight for a better deal. He sits down with co-host Pete Muldoon to talk about why and where about $2 million should go instead.
