Read the text and choose the statement that is supported by it. In 2015 the town of Alder Bay replaced its night bus with a smaller but more frequent service. At first, fewer people bought tickets because passengers did not know the new timetable. After the council put printed schedules at every stop, the number of passengers grew by 30 percent in one year. Some residents still complain that the buses do not go to the industrial zone, but the council says the route will be extended only if at least 200 people sign a request.

The text says that ticket sales fell at first because people did not know the timetable. After printed schedules were placed at every stop, passenger numbers grew by 30 percent. So «Passengers began to use the buses more after timetables appeared at stops.» is supported. «The council has already extended the route to the industrial zone.» is wrong because the extension depends on a request signed by 200 people. «Fewer people bought tickets at first because the buses were smaller.» is wrong because the text gives the unknown timetable as the reason. «Residents stopped complaining once the printed schedules were introduced.» is wrong because some residents still complain about the missing route.
