ROCKFORD(WREX) - Rockford's bus service feels the effects of the rough economy and may raise prices to make ends meet. The Rockford Mass Transit District will look at an increase for the Spring.

It could raise the cost of rides by 50-cents and 25-cents for transfers. But before it makes any change decision makers want to hear from you. They'll hold public hearings on the possible increase.

Here is a list of the hearings:
