Daily cuts are generally like single digit percentage these days. Some routes end up with more trips cut than others. Routes with higher frequency are more likely to have cuts so that already infrequent routes don't end up stranding people forever. (Cutting a trip on a route that runs every 10 minutes leads to a 20 minute gap between trips while cutting a trip on a route that comes every 30 minutes results in a 60 minute gap.)

There is a manpower shortage nationwide in the transit industry. MDOT MTA isn't unique in that challenge.
