Proposed Changes to City of Tucson Transit Services: Includes Discontinuation of Route 5
Now is the time to provide input! Learn about the "Comprehensive Operational Analysis" Draft Plan:
"The aim of the COA is to enhance the transit system to better support the needs of the community and improve the efficient, effectiveness, and equity of current transit options.
Working within the existing operating budget, the goal is to make service improvements and address community priorities through optimizing the system and increasing efficiency."
We encourage you to review the proposed changes and take action, especially if you or someone you know depend on bus route 5 which runs through Palo Verde Neighborhood.
