The Timing is Perfect - Schedule and Route Changes for the RTS Transit Center!
The beautiful new RTS Transit Center, opening on November 28, 2014, is not all that’s changing for RTS: we’re also changing our routes and schedules. We’re doing this to accommodate the additional time required to travel through the Transit Center and to enhance the customer experience!
We invited customers to join us during one of eight Public Information Sessions in April and May, where they were able weigh in and ask questions about the proposed changes. On May 8, we held a Public Hearing where, following a short presentation about the RTS Transit Center, each attendee who registered to speak had three minutes to share his or her questions or concerns.
