Beginning Sept. 11, the Montgomery County Department of Transportation (MCDOT) will adjust 24 Ride On bus route schedules to “improve efficiency,” according to a press release.
“Ridership data and on-time performance are monitored regularly, and this service change focuses on raising reliability,” MCDOT Director Chris Conklin said. “Overall, service levels will remain within one percent of where we were. Most of our over 80 routes will not experience changes.”
Bus route changes include:
- 21 routes have time changes: 4, 5, 9, 10, 15, 16, 20, 26, 34, 37, 38, 43, 46, 48, 55, 59, 61, 63, 79, 83, and 100.
- Three routes have slight route changes with no bus stop or time changes: 27, 45, 90.
