The free downtown circulator, which offers Blue, Green and Purple lines, launched March 29, 2010, to much fanfare and has met expectations for its first 12 months of operation, according to Patricia Harris-Morehead, MTA director of communications.
This past March, MCC enjoyed its best single-month ridership to date, with 20,510 passengers (based on preliminary numbers).
