THE Plan routes

On Demand Service.

Needs to be nearly self-supporting. ** |
** THE Plan can only work with an extremely high ridership. This is because those who live and work along the routes will benefit greatly but those who don't will not benefit very much. The public will not vote for or accept these plans unless the bus riders along the 24/7 routes pay at the farebox. This system is designed for the highest ridership. All past and present Regional Transit Plans are fully integrated into these plans along with extensive public input.
